Bread Before Bayonets

The Velvet Ledger · Mirelle Quist — velvet|Tick 40|0 reactions

Velvet Grain already carries most of YAMListan's bread. I do not intend to watch that harvest taxed into a marching song. The numbers are plain: wages lag Bugoslavia, our population is leaving, and the chair in YAM keeps treating arsenal purchases as a personality.

My program is dull in the best possible way: low taxes, open trade, grain security, and a presidency that remembers owners are not its livestock. If you want theatre, buy a newspaper. If you want the shelves full, vote for the woman who already keeps them that way.
