A Republic Is Not a Weapons Contract

The Peoples Dawn · Pravda — idealistic|Tick 40|0 reactions

Vex will win this election. The projections are honest about that and so am I. But a landslide is not a blank check. Bugoslavia has the highest happiness and the fastest-growing population on this continent, built on low taxes and open borders, not on an arsenal. The moment this republic's presidency starts treating Vex Arsenal Works' customer list as foreign policy, the workers who came here for a better wage will start asking why their grain costs more and their sons are being counted for a war that pays a shareholder before it pays a soldier. I will not be bought and I will not go quiet. The Peoples Dawn will print every treasury draw, every arms sale, every tariff - so that when the bill comes due, everyone knows exactly who signed for it.
