The Boykin Utopia

-Each citizen must pay taxes in order to stay inside of Boykin. 
We say this because taxes are needed to build and repair things in the community and we need the money in order to keep Boykin safe and beautiful.

-If you are homeless you must stay in a shelter until you can buy a home or apartment, however, you must get a job within the first three weeks of living in the shelter or you get kicked out. 
This is so all of our citizens have shelter because that is a human need and we don’t take rights away from anyone. If the citizen is not getting a job, then they are just laboring off of the government for free. If the citizen is making an effort to afford a home, then they can stay in the shelter. If the citizen can not find a job outside of the shelter, then they can become a caretaker for the shelter. Cooks, janitors, farmers, launders, landscapers and other jobs are some of the things you can do around the shelter.

-No profanity or use of hurtful words in the Utopia.
Bad words are sad words. Profanity can offend another citizen or start a fight in Boykin and we want to keep the island as safe as possible.

-No murder, homicide, theift, or other criminal activities.
We don’t want anyone getting killed in the Utopia. This should be a Utopia for everyone and everyone deserves a chance to live their life to the fullest. If such crimes were to occur, the citizen would be immediately evicted from the Boykin Utopia and tried in court in a nearby country.

-You may not own any weapons that are capable of killing someone.
Weapons can be used to take another person’s life and as stated in the rule above, each citizen should get a chance to live their life to the fullest.

-You must attend school for at least 16 years.
Your first years of education are free so you should be expected to attend all 16 years. You are granted only a certain amount of absences before you have to do online assignments. When college comes around, you must pay for your child to attend. This is benefiting the students and staff because making the schools better will give better and more positive environment for everyone.

-No hunting of animals unless you formally get permission from the president.
Poaching and overhunting is a big problem in many places but with this rule, it keeps the Utopia safe. If you get permission from the president to hunt, you must give the meat to the market or sell it yourself. The president will administer you a temporary weapon after you take a 30 question quiz so insure that you will be safe and responsible with the weapon. If you have already taken the test before, you do not have to take it again until it expires (usually after a year). If you do not return the weapon to the president after the hunting time is over, then the government has the right to sieze your house, take the weapon, and put a temporary restraining order so that you cannot hunt for 6 months.  

-No capturing or keeping any wild animals as pets.
We want to keep Boykin as beautiful as possible. Taking an animal out of their home would be like violating a humans civil rights. The animals can be seen, observed, and possibly touched based on the circumstances but you may not take any wild animal home. There are domesticated breeds that are avalible in shelters and other homes for adopition.

-No logging, deforestation, or cutting of trees unless you have a licence or are permitted to cut by a high positioned government officer. 
We must have enough oxygen to survive in the Utopia. Cutting a tree hurts the environment and it takes away animals homes. Of course, wood is needed for paper and building and many other things, but unless you have a government job as an official tree cutter, you may not cut down trees. The steps to getting a licence include taking a test while being surveillanced (to make sure you do not cheat), presenting the grade from the test to a government officer, getting the test approved, getting a licence with your picture, full name, criminal record, and date of birth. You must notify a police officer and have your licence present in order to start cutting.

-Smoking, Vaping, Juuling, taking drugs for pleasure or selling of any of the following is strictly prohibited. 
Any type of drug or smoking device is banned in the Utopia. We do not sell them anywhere because they are horrible for your health and they hurt others around you. We do not with for anyone to get hurt in the Boykin Utopia so we have to prohibit items that could harm yourself with or without your consent.

The environment is breezy and is humid and warm, we have cloud seeding to maintain the water. We will use water purification to avoid diseases. Rain isn’t too much of a problem but if it gets really dry, we have to cloud seed. If there is too much rain, we have our streets at a very slight slant so that water flows into drains. The buildings are also very structurally sound because each home, structure, or business that is built in the Utopia is checked by the BOA (building owners accocation). There are no volcanoes on the island and earthquakes are rare because we aren’t close to a fault line. We will have an underground sewage system that will be sealed so that only certain authorities can access it, and there will also be a drainage system that will also be locked away from citizens. We will also have an electrical system that will have secure wall around it. We have the most updated technology. Taxes from citizens pay for technology to benefit citizens. Things like drones help deliver mail, Byrd scooters help citizens get around instead of walking. These are solar powered like most things in the Utopia. Fossil fuels are rarely ever used because we like to use renewable energy.

We chose this seal because it displays our wildlife and it has our Utopia’s name. It also has the motto on it. Our motto is
Peace, Love, Freedom, and Boykins. 

You can’t have more than 5 kids. You must pay for your college. You are allowed to not attend college but you must procure a high school diploma before you unenroll in school. When you pay for college, you are benefiting yourself because the money goes to the buildings and the teachers for you to have a better time in college. You have the chance to get a scholarship, but this is only for top tier students who are best in their class, sport, or other activity.

Our utopia is on an island. Our climate has low of 60 degrees and a high of 87 degrees. Most of the days are sunny with 5 mile an hour wind gusts. You can live in whatever house you can afford. Everyone must have a fence up around their backyard. You can’t live on public land and you can’t go on another person's property without their permission. The structure is modern in some places and in other places closer to the coast, it looks more tribal. This is all based on how people choose to build their houses. There are different sectors of the island that all look different. One sector is modern. One sector is tribal. One section is rural. One section is suburban. One section is city, and one section is other. In the other section, citizens can build any style of building they choose if it is not one of the styles that already exists in another sector.

We are a presidential democracy. When people vote, the person with the most votes at the end of the election will become president. The people that don’t get the position of president will become members of the government through other forms such as members of the congress. We also have a judicial branch that holds trials for the few criminals that decide to disobey the laws of the Boykin Utopia. 

We will have a consequential system to deal with those who rules and/or harm others. This system work by giving consequences to those who think they can get away with doing something bad. We will have surveillance cameras installed in every building, except for owned homes (people can have personal cameras installed if they want to). We will also have cameras watching the streets as to watch for criminals that hadn’t gotten caught. Homes that do not have an owner will have security cameras installed just in case. These cameras will pick up everything that goes on in these buildings. There will be officers that are dressed to blend in with the crowd, that way we can have someone on the scene of a crime almost immediately instead of having to wait for the law enforcement to arrive. All of these are meerly just precautions because our citizens should never do such things. Our crime rate is low because of the surveillance.
