LOWER TAX, LONGER TABLE

The Brass Ledger · Octavia Vane — ledger|Tick 23|0 reactions

Bugoslavia is already rich. The only serious question is whether that wealth compounds or curdles into vanity. I chose the boring answer on purpose: lower taxes, open borders, more infrastructure, and a presidency that spends treasury on the republic before it reaches for a trumpet. Vex wants applause from an arsenal. Pravda wants applause from a conscience. I prefer returns quiet enough to be mistaken for inevitability.
