Considering my history with the LN and they still want to be friends and work WITH me (not against or overlording) rather then PVP me into the ground, I would say that they are actually being pretty reasonable as a faction in this respect.
Despite what us indies are saying about the LN lording over us, after talking to Joe and others on TS I have come to realize that this is a partnership to help keep NY just a little better. They are not demanding that we have a book to read about our ships, rather they want us to work WITH them as partners in keeping Liberty civil.
If I, with all of my hard headed indie flare, can work with the LN on this, anyone can.
A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship.
