gollark: I mean, how far do you go with this? If you want to give someone a pencil or something, do you have to return it to the Government Pencil Bureau™ for a token reward and have them buy it back?
gollark: Not really. Reasonably free exchange doesn't have that issue.
gollark: You now have to devote a *lot* of resources from stopping people from trying to trade with each other.

gollark: How do I propose a rule™?
