The Caps will all have a symbol in the middle denoting the rank and the type.  The color of the hat will also do so as well.

Redcaps -  Redcaps are the basic ground unit.  You are the soldier of information and the future of this regime.  With your numbers we can take up arms and take over the world to create a dictatorship in my image!  Think of all the changes I can make with the Electric Future program.  Yes, free beer once the world is taken over too.  Symbol will be the basic Jackuul insignia, in red.

Whitecaps – Whitecaps, you help the redcaps with morale, snack foods, and supplying them with the things they need to continue the information effort.  You are the caretakers, and are integral to our operation.  You can also spread information with Jackuul shaped cookies.  Corrupt the children… Symbol will be the basic Jackuul insignia, in monochrome.

Blackcaps – You are the secret soldier of secretdom.  You are so secret, I can’t say more.  Symbol is the Jackuul Vulture.

Bluecaps – You are the organizers and commanders.  You make sure the red, and white are working together.  You are the blue in the sky that holds the little world together with your blueness.  You also get more beer when I take over earth.  Your symbol is the Jackuul insignia in the sacred blue.

So far this is what I am leaning toward.  One day I might get a cafe press whatchamacallit and actually sell caps.  Then I will be able to control your minds!  Your minds I say!

You may be wondering “Why would we want some World Dictator to solve our problems? Wouldn’t we lose all our freedoms?” Actually no – in spite of what many think about people who want to rule the world, my dictatorship would be void of the “Total Power” and “Obey the Iron Fist” tactics in countries that cooperated. In fact, social liberties would be greatly expanded and protected in all countries. Only your political freedoms would need to be revoked in order for me to get the things done that I need to. Oh, and one little bonus for you all – Corrupt individuals in any of the smaller governments would be dragged out in public, tarred, and feathered – and left to the mobs of people who were wronged. Really. I hate corrupted individuals as much as you do. Also, addressing the social liberties issue I would not restrict or adopt any religion by my government, or allow such in any of the smaller governments.

On to the “Save your economy” part. First off, I would have to get rid of all federal-reserve like institutions and then (many people will bitch) replace all involved economic currencies with one currency. Sounds bad – but here’s a nice little ditty: The world currency will be printed differently for each country, but accepted by all. The U.S. keeps its dollars, the British keep their Pound, and so on and so on. It just means that they are exchanged at an equal rate, seeing how they’re all a part of the Empire.

On to the next step. All National level governments (the ones answering to mine) would have their spending and responsibilities cut on a massive scale. I’m talking 2 trillion in the U.S. and the same in all other Empire countries. Then the elimination of taxes on persons. Personal income tax elimination means that people keep more of what they make, and therefore they will no longer be worries, or hurt, by direct taxation. Businesses are next on the list, however that will come more slowly as a transition period ensues. All government programs will then be moved to the State level (rather than National Level) governments, because I firmly believe Local People can solve Local Problems with Local Government. That means states are in charge of their own capital gains and running themselves. The national governments are in charge of a few things – insuring the rights of the people are not messed with, insuring the national defense (which for the time being would be null, as the Empire army would be where all of this goes) and also making sure the nation it is in charge of remains efficient and economically productive.

This should eliminate many of the problems the poor face by them being able to keep more of their hard earned money and as such they won’t be the ones pressured to do the unthinkable and crime should fall. I know there will still be poor and there will still be those disadvantaged – I address that with what I will call my own “Public Works” program (Credit to the Roman Empire for a part of the idea). In exchange for Empire medical, housing, and food, they can work for the Empire Public Works program for rebuilding infrastructure. They will also receive on the job training in construction, computer maintenance, Unix, and many other things. To fund this I will be needing an Empire tax (sin tax on things that are unhealthy. Aimed at the people who make them AND the people who consume them – the goal being to lower medical costs), however much of the income will come from the production of Empire Merchandise produced at prisons. No more need for sweatshops. Companies like Nike and such could invest in prisons and then we’d take a part of the profit, and keep it. All prisons would pay for themselves and additionally would pay for many of the government programs.

There will be a lot of prisoners. Think Bush Administration.

There will also be many other ways of Empire income that will not affect or effect anyone. Anyways, with the Public Works program interstates, inter-countries, and other needed pieces of infrastructure, such as the Nevada Nuclear Super-complex (with enough power to supply all of North America) and similar would be built. Everything would be designed for ultra efficiency, and by so doing, the best rate of cash expense and then later gain. Not only would these nuclear facilities be the safest designed – ever (using the latest Generation technology available) they would also be extremely efficient by using heat differentials after the steam turbines to power sterling engines for additional electrical output (I know a lot about energy sources, by using the heat that comes from cooling towers it furthers the efficiency of the operation and produces additional electricity by converting it into mechanical power and then electrical power). There is even a way to harvest the radiation from spent fuel cells and create electricity. This would also be employed in a massive radioactive containment facility that no only contains the material, but produces electricity from it.

What this means for you: Cleaner world. By shutting down older nuclear facilities, coal plants, natural gas plants, and oil plants, the output of pollution will be drastically cut. The highways themselves would be electric and piloted (your car will basically hook into a railing system and be propelled along it and guided to your set destination at speeds in excess of 200 miles per hour, with no chances of collisions because of a system of safeguards and computer guidance). I suspect million worldwide could be employed in these work programs and thus leave with valuable skills to further enhance the world economy.

As the economy grows, so does the Empire’s ability to manage it. The final goal is an absolute free market. With the prosperity countries who remained out of the Empire would likely find themselves either losing people from immigration to neighboring Empire countries, or facing a revolt unless the join. In the end the entire world will be a part, and once secure, the Empire itself will disengage from management as it sees fit. Final goal being just an oversight body that looks on and doesn’t intervene anymore unless there is a problem. Also the planned surplus will be on the magnitude of a few tens of trillions of dollars to fund the final projects – that being the restoration of as much lost fauna as possible to ensure there is an O2 supply, and also chemical cleanup from the past industries that pretty much are today ruining the ocean.

Did I mention there would be a Free Beer Friday once a month?
