Notes
gollark: I'd really prefer a government which does as little as possible, as governments have *repeatedly* shown themselves to be incapable of efficiently and sanely doing anything.
gollark: How do I propose a rule™?
gollark: Yes, clever.
gollark: So you also have suborganizations trading with *each other*?
gollark: That would... basically just defeat most of the point of the supply/demand mechanism?
