| Message | Art 1 is a slight improvement, but we need to go much further. The State should never interfere in business, especially failing businesses. Bad nusinesses need to be able to fail in order for their capital to be reallocated efficiently. Throwing good money after bad is always a stupid idea, especially when the good money being thrown has been expropriated from hard working Trigunian citizens. |
