Lol.
Any other rage quitters? I'd suggest an exit stage left, though that's because I don't know what goes on at stage right.
Although for those who want to play still please hold the salt for a bit. We tend to need seasoning of some form as a quest goes on.

Agreed, I would have been happy either way. I just want an XCOM quest, there was a really good one that ended a while a go so I have my hopes up.

:O, why you hate Murica 
Murica is cool
Though to be serious, Its w/e to RQ the quest, however don't show anger and contempt on your way out, because Noone gives a shit if you leave in the first place, but especially don't try to sour things for others.

Have you clicked the '+' icons to expand each category?
You can only see currently available techs. You currently have two techs available per category. More techs/categories can unlock during the quest. More info will be released when I finish writing up the R&D actions.

Militaristic:
Reintroduce Conscription:
We simply don't have enough men in uniform to reconstitute even a single branch of the armed forces. If we intend to do so, we must first begin conscription.
80%, 1000(+20%), 2

Liquidate Remaining Assets:
While the United States military is defunct, its assets still remain. By liquidating what remains we can reduce our debt by as much as 5%!
100%, -2500(-25%), 1
Reopen Officer Schools:
Our officer corps has been greatly depleted over the last five years. If we want to restore our military's administrative and command duties we must begin training replacements. Unfortunately, this is expensive. (Countrywide equivalent of Long War's Officer Training School.)

I am of the opinion that, when given the option of more actions per/turn, those options should be taken ASAP, cause their usefulness directly relates to how quickly you get those additional actions.
And XCOM is probably the single most advanced organization in all areas of technology ATM, we should try and get on friendly terms with them quickly so we can use their tech to get both ourselves and later the wider world back on its feet.

Well, ramp up the actions. We'd need industry and finance actions ASAP to get on top of the debt problem rather than baling a ship out with a bucket.
Go buy a pump. The bucket can't even go as fast as it leaks.
