' Wrote:The Corrupt Elders propaganda makes no sense since there are absolutely no indications of them stealing other people's stuff. In fact, both Sails and Benitez Elders are often seen in the field, fighting and pirating for their nation while they could be getting fat in the Council Chambers.
Indeed. The vast majority of Creteans depend entirely on the Elders and the the groups they lead to bring in food and credits/cargo to trade with the Zoners/Samura/IND.
And the Elders aren't exactly politicians. With the exception of Don Benitez (head of a smuggling cartel), they are all grizzled elder warriors who've led their men on the battlefield to countless victories and defeats.
The Council chambers on Crete may be grand and eloquent buildings, but i doubt you will find anyone there stuffing their face with the finest food and tossing scraps to huddling masses.
gone four years, first day back: Zoners still getting shot in Theta :|
