You have to vote it into existence. Retroactive laws are unconstitutional.
You have to pass a constitutional ammendment forming a bank and economic system or it doesn't count. But you can't do it retroactively. You have to start from zero and have the system formed by the community. Rubber stamping communism doesn't count.

You can't use constitutional amendments retroactively.

Side bar: I like and support Slothism as it's fun. But don't you dare tell me an economic system where the government owns all the money and doles it out to party members to not work is based on capitalism or democracy. It is communist style socialism.

I disagree — but anyway, if the government doesn’t like any aspect of how the financial system works, they have the power to change it. Or abolish it entirely.

I did the best I could to be fair setting it up, but I don’t believe the decisions I made about the Bank are necessarily the be-all, end-all. I see it as a starting point that can be tweaked and fixed by the government to its liking.

You still can't use constitutional amendments retroactively. Even if you dont agree...

Congress | image tagged in congress | made w/ Imgflip meme maker
In the near future, perhaps this weekend, I want Congress to vote on the “IMGFLIP_BANK” which is shorthand for the budding PRESIDENTS financial system as encompassed by these streams:

imgflip.com/m/IMGFLIP_BANK
imgflip.com/m/IMGFLIP_BANK_account
imgflip.com/m/ImgflipShop (Founded by Jemy)
imgflip.com/m/ImgflipCharities (Founded by Envoy)

We might also eventually want a separate stream for PRESIDENTS PACs, or those could just go under Envoy’s Charity stream.

Looks like we’re gonna need a Secretary of the Treasury in the Cabinet now. Would you be interested? If not can you recommend anyone who might be up for the job?

We have a Head Banker, which is formally Luigi_Official, although I’ve taken most of the heavy lifting setting it up and promoting it, I’d like him to run it if he can. I see the Head Banker as the person who manages the day-to-day.

Would the Secretary of Treasury be the liaison to the IMGFLIP_BANK in a political sense? Deciding things like salary rates and what PRESIDENTS cash can be used for? Sort of like the Head Banker’s boss?

We need a banker to do that. Unfortunately, Sloth and Luigi are already in the cabinet.

Oh yeah. Sorry I must have muddled up with the last term where he was campaign manager.

This must be a sign I need a rest so I’ll be afk for a few hours. See you later!

I’m the Homeland Security guy, remember? :)

Yes, Luigi and I both have Cabinet positions already — if we need to give those up for someone else if we’re going to be Bankers or Secretary of Treasury that’s fine by me.

Yeah I remember now I must’ve been thinking about last term lol

I’m fine with you being both a Cabinet member and a banker.
