The Community of Like whatever is a huge, cultured nation, remarkable for its daily referendums, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The compassionate, democratic population of 253 million slackers are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The large, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Education, Welfare, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 68.2%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The chill economy, worth 16.2 trillion Loves a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector is led by the Tourism industry, with significant contributions from Information Technology, Door-to-door Insurance Sales, and Basket Weaving. Average income is 63,924 Loves, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

International tensions are high as Like whatever threatens any government with the audacity to arrest its citizens, dog breeding has been banned in accordance with recent animal experimentation laws, there are no more heroes any more, and scientists have great chemistry with their subjects. Crime is totally unknown. Like whatever's national animal is the Dude, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Like whatever is ranked 54,314th in the world and 1,170th in the South Pacific for Most Scientifically Advanced, scoring 137.76 on the Kurzweil Singularity Index.
