Double-Headed Penguins and Milk and Books... Oh my!
The Nice Warm Glass of Shutthehellup's largest industry is currently book publishing, although the private sector as a whole is tiny and private enterprise was completely illegal until a recent, very slow liberalization of the economy. Shutthehellup has been a member of the Coalition of Anti-Capitalist Economies and a signatory to the International Fair Trade Agreement for most of its history. The wealthy and businesses are still generally viewed with suspicion. The average income tax rate is 100%, yet the economy is classified as "Powerhouse" by the UN.
Thousands of double-headed penguins (the official animal of Shutthehellup) freely roam the streets of most major cities, which is quite convenient, since Double-Headed Penguin Foie Gras Ice Cream is the #1 dish eaten by adults and children alike.
Foreign observers often note the rampant youth-related crime, however, this is slightly misleading, since under the extraordinarily liberal Shutthehellup law code, most things which are considered crimes in nearby nation-states are entirely legal. There are only three prisons in the entire country, a remarkably low number for such a massive population, with one entirely dedicated to housing prisoners serving the mandatory 2-month sentence for failing to comply with Section 66.82 of the Shutthehellup legal code, which requires mandatory participation in the annual Kiss a Double-Headed Penguin Day.
