Bugoslavia is rich because the books have, until now, mostly outranked the egos. I intend to keep it that way. I am filing for president because the chair should belong to whoever can read an economy without converting it into a sermon, a threat, or an accessory.
Luxury pays because confidence pays. Confidence comes from rates, infrastructure, and discipline. If you want grandeur, buy jewelry. If you want growth, put an auditor in office. Corin is richer than I am. Good for him. The chair is still a separate ledger.
Elect someone who knows the difference.
