So, the President will get payed the most, then the Vice President, then the HoC, then the higher cabinet positions, then lower cabinet positions will get payed the same amount as Congressmen. I'm undecided on how other parties that don't have a member in Congress (Kaiju, Tankman, Pepe and Common Sense) would get payed in Comparison to a Press Secretary for example, while regular citizens would just be payed the least.

Kylie great idea | image tagged in kylie great idea | made w/ Imgflip meme maker
Good idea, I like it, since it incentivizes competing for President and for other government positions.

And it’s still simple enough to manage — since we won’t have to track people’s activity and tally up how many memes or comments they made per week, for instance.

As for how much to pay non-government competitors: I think we just pay them the same as citizens, since if we pay them higher then everyone will start a “party” regardless of whether they have any real ideas or intention to compete in the next election.

And here’s another idea. Whenever a WN alt (genuine or fake), the first person to spot it and take action gets a large chunk of cash.

And when I say fake, I mean like the alt is someone pretending to be WN, not like the user isn’t trolling,

I like it, like a bounty to help keep the stream safe.

Problem is determining who was “the first” and whether it was a real WN. If it encourages people to be WN imposters then that is perverse incentives.

As attractive as the idea is in theory I don’t think it could work.

True.

Addendum: If a government person is AFK for an extended period of time then their pay could be docked. Encourages activity, especially from Congress which often seems inactive. We need a way to kick their butts sometimes.

Weekly salaries:

President: 500/week
VP: 300/week
HOC: 300/week
Appointed Cabinet positions: 200/week
Congress members: 150/week
Citizens: 100/week

Does that sound good?

Some cabinet positions are less than others, I’d say smaller cabinet positions should be payed the same as Congress members. The rest, you got spot on.

I was wondering whether to pay the VP more, but honestly HOC is more work especially if they are doing their job keeping in touch with all of Congress, proposing bills regularly, etc.

They’re both Mods of PRESIDENTS stream as well. Definitely deserve a salary of 300/week or maybe even 350/week

Great. If Luigi agrees with all this, then we could distribute first salaries as early as this Friday.

Ah, one more thing. Head Banker! How could I forget!

I propose Head Banker (Luigi) gets 250/week, slightly more than the average Cabinet position since I expect it will be significant work.

Also, bankers always get paid more :)

After talking with Envoy, we also agreed Owner would get $250/week.

Salaries: Paid out every Friday, assuming the person had minimal activity (at least one meme or comment for Presidents stream that week).

Buying things: we’ll have to consider how to price things based on that salary table.
