Keep in mind that the assembly vote failed last month, but DWTL got it forced on the ballot again this month. To make your analogy more accurate, it would be like Proposition 8 failed but its organizers just stuck it right back on the ballot and pledged to keep doing it until it passed. How is that not the outrageous thing?

"Sorry, you voted the wrong way" referenda have a long and proud history. There's one in Ireland on October 2nd.

People, the most important thing about this election is voting for my giant statue - need I remind you that anyone who votes against building the statue is a filthy communist and a traitor to our region.

Building this monument will create tens of thousands - maybe even hundreds of thousands - of jobs that our citizens so desperately need in both the public and private sectors. Even before the statue is completed, no doubt we will experience an influx of tourism and the revenue that will no doubt accompany it, for people will come far and wide to see the spectacle. They will no doubt cower in fear of my visage long after I am dead, and shall surely be in awe of the region that was capable of building such a wonder.

It's about 500,000 miles tall. How long will it take to complete?

The disrespect for the law and the constitution by the leaders of the RPP is... well... not exactly shocking, but still probably a bad thing.
Wow its going to be fun seeing your sorry ass tossed out in October

I was considering voting for Lief until I read those statements... Not anymore.

If you're just going to echo the Dear Leader, don't even post.

First off, don't be silly. It's only 284,090.909 miles tall. That's exactly the height necessary to represent my greatness - I'm not God after all, I do have some humility. I might even be willing to make it a bit smaller if we can encrust it in precious jewels and stones.

As to how long it will take, I am uncertain. Should the citizens of the region prove not to be filthy communist traitors, I can assure you that the various architects and engineers who would no doubt be willing to fight one another to the death or sacrifice their first born sons just for the honor of slaving for the rest of their lives in a vain attempt to complete the monument will be able to give you an estimate.

18 inches? I used a yard.

According to the Wikipedia article for cubits, the measurement has varied over time.

So your measurement is correct in a way. However, since the 18 inches measurement is shorter I would say we should go with that - after all, that would be the least expensive option.

How do we make sure it doesn't hit the moon?

Once construction has reached the point that the statue is high enough, I expect the moon to be broken up and used as building materials. Granted this may have some effects on the tides and whatnot, but considering it's a statue whose height exceeds our planet's diameter by many times I would imagine that the gravitational forces generated by it would cause such things anyways. The good news is that the new situation will bring about the need for new technological innovations, thus creating high paying jobs for researchers.

Interesting. What is the interior of the moon made of?
