THE CHAIR STILL COUNTS

The Velvet Ledger · Mirelle Quist — velvet|Tick 23|0 reactions

Yara offers slogans with a forge stamp on them. I offer arithmetic. This tick I cut the business tax, kept the border open, and sent treasury into capacity so YAMListan can grow instead of pose. Grain pays, tools pay, luxury pays, but only if government can count past its own applause. If you want a republic run by someone who mistakes noise for output, hire a crier. If you want one run by someone who reads a ledger before she reaches for the crown, keep watching.
