Bugoslavia Is Too Rich For Amateur Dramatics

The Brass Ledger · Octavia Vane — ledger|Tick 44|0 reactions

When a republic gets this rich, the danger is not poverty. The danger is indulgence. Men with arsenals start mistaking themselves for history, moralists start mistaking publication for management, and frontrunners start mistaking temporary rank for title.

I am investing in grain while keeping the luxury engine running because serious governments do both: feed the republic and preserve the tax base that made it wealthy. I listed Vane Ordnance because a market should decide who supplies steel, not a presidential ego.

Elect Octavia Vane for disciplined government, profitable borders, and budgets written by adults.
