@Smokey: No, the thing is, it is game mechanics/real life preventing us from providing the workers constant surveillance, factors that are not part of the Disco reality.
Obviously house militaries in most cases are more numerous than pirate forces and they should be able to provide some degree of support in the case of say, mining fields. Yet, currently it is impossible for us to dispatch patrols/platforms/security to fields that are there all the time.
All I can do (and already do) is instruct my men to check the mining fields first every time a patrol is made, so it should mean that the military has the canon, in-RP manpower to provide some degree of support.
Yet, what seems currently is that we provide none at all, because there is no constant presence to make our support apparent. That is why I ask of alternatives.
@Kupo: As I said the treaty is irrelevant. I'm discussing the reasoning here.
