14th Bundschuh Partei-Kongress

[TheJarl]

"You say the Outcasts are not human. Why not? Demokratie, Freiheit, GLEICHHEIT is our motto. They are people like you and me.

And may I also note, that I doubt cardamine is the reason for Liberty's state? If it wasn't cardamine, they would've found something else. In fact they already got other things, they smuggle slaves, synthetic marijuana and alien artifacts around there as well. Those things cause at least as much crime and corruption.

And we must not forget, that while cardamine has negative effects, there are also positive ones. Though the House governments don't like to admit it as it undermines their authority, cardamine significantly increases a human's lifespan. Ja, they will become physically addicted and ja, there is large chance they won't be able to reproduce anymore.

But... that's their choice. Not ours. If they believe they can afford it and don't want children anyway, why stop them?

And there are more positive effects. Outcast pilots are known to sometimes quickly inhale some cardamine during combat and apparently this increases their abilities for a short duration. Quicker responses, keener senses, higher stamina. Cardamine has useful applications.

And you say it would be against our believes, yet on the other hand you do believe pillaging a foreign house is a better option?"

She takes a deep breath...

"...Let's not become the Unioners. They already sometimes apply their disgusting ways in Liberty. Let's not follow their example.

However, you do have a good point. Allying with Libertonian unlawful organisations might be a good idea. Particularly the Lane Hackers and the Hellfire Legion seem to be some of the more moral types. Although the Lane Hackers are quite greedy, they are not some mindless barbarians and the Hellfire Legion seems to never even lift a finger against civilians.

And while the Hellfire Legion generally oppose cardamine, the Lane Hackers embrace it.

We already tried to establish relationships with them before I believe. Let's try again..."
