None of this works if you don't have severe penalties for criminal conduct which are enforced effectively, plus complete freedom to hire and fire for legitimate reasons. So really I just need to be the Leviathan for a short period. Once my system is in place, I can step down and watch paradise emerge.  |
I believe you.
You have my vote.
