The Deluded Hypocrisy of Wisconsota is a gargantuan, cultured nation, remarkable for its complete lack of prisons, restrictive gun laws, and devotion to social welfare. The compassionate, democratic, cheerful population of 41.528 billion Wisconsotans enjoy a sensible mix of personal and economic freedoms, while the political process is open and the people's right to vote held sacrosanct.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked morass — prioritizes Education, with Social Policy, Healthcare, and Welfare also on the agenda, while Spirituality receives no funds. The income tax rate is 100%.

The enormous but inefficient Wisconsotan economy, worth a remarkable 4,365 trillion mud patties a year, is extremely specialized and mostly made up of the Book Publishing industry, with significant contributions from Gambling. State-owned companies are reasonably common. Average income is an impressive 105,131 mud patties, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

No one believes anything until it has been strenuously tested and peer-reviewed, Occam's razor has sliced to pieces any childhood belief in Santa Claus and the Tooth Fairy, banning party poppers has been a real party pooper, and the only thing slower than the economy is the exchange where it's managed. Crime is totally unknown. Wisconsota's national animal is the bapher, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

Wisconsota is ranked 123,222nd in the world and 2,588th in The North Pacific for Largest Gambling Industry, scoring 1,012.54 on the Kelly Criterion Productivity Index.
