Top ten reasons why Allegiance should be subsidised by the International Monetary Fund:

1. Keep Spidey,TE and BV off the streets!

2. We need to keep sharp in case the forces of evil (Fascism and Communism) rear thier ugly head (again).

3. Times are hard..the computer corporations might fail.

4. The future promotion of the goodness of Bacon.

5. The future promotion of the goodness of Cheese-its.

6. Times are hard..keeping people occupied when they get tired of selling apples on the street corner.

7. Can be used as a free tool by businesses/governments that want to test server load.

8. Can be used by computer geeks to convince other computer geeks that you are smarter than them because YOU bothered to learn the game.

9. Can be used as a free tool by businesses/governments that want to fire thier over qualified(over paid)
technicians that can't help playing while on the clock.

10. Keep Spidey,TE and BV off the streets!

Without us, the human race would be royally $#@!ed should a meteor take out Earth! How would humanity fight off the alien invaders without us prior trained in space combat/tactics?

I remember making that joke....

Someone responded to me with 'Dear Soldier of Fortune, I remember the time my experience as Tactical commander of the week in the game of Allegiance allowed me to secretly destroy the economic source and hence seize the small island nation of Cuba....'.

Good stuff.

I'll take mine with a side of girlyboy.

Leave it up to Camaro to turn a joke into a serious indictment of Big Government...

Woah, i thought Girlyboy was light in calories.

#12 It's the only way to get the Germans to stop complaining about playing on laggy US servers.

#13 Bios research costs would be cut in half.

#14 Bios research times would be tripled and commanders would have to expect periodic union strikes that would cripple production.

#15 Belter pilots could afford to buy new 'hybrid' ships and bases. Though they would look good and would come with flowers on the dash, they would carry triple the hitpoints and have you ever tried to escape Weedman with a 'Green' booster?

#16 Allegiance commanders would get the ultimate investment button labelled 'Deficit Spending'.

#17 pkk, Tigereye, Aarmstrong would no longer have to rely on the generosity of strangers. In fact, we probably would never hear from them again.

#18 SRM could buy back TheBored

# 19 ACE could stop stealing players

#20 XT would still be going to hell but at least they could afford first class.

#21 SysX would still be going to hell but at least they could move into coach from the baggage compartment. But hell, it still beats having to sit up front with XT.
