(we arent book burning!!!)
you say that in such a sinister tone… this is why i hate this decision.
Counts, Grandees, Chiefs, Patricians, why not unite on option A? Keep the wealth for ourselves, not the king. Him and the reds would work to distribute it, possibly, and i cannot have communism in this great kingdom! It is bad for the farms!
Augustin flinches before furrowing his brow in anger. He points at Jaspin dramatically.
“I care for the commoners as much as my lordship and Lord Vespertine does. Your lordship has no right to insinuate I don’t, for the sole reason that I don’t follow with your nonsensical arguments.”
then whats the reasoning for witholding the printing press for everyone
is it not to give more money to you?
to make the rich stay rich?
what about the people who may not have the money to afford such a press?
what will you tell them?
is it fair for them to not have this opportunity?
will you give them something in return?

Augustin holds his sash, his eyes suddenly fearful, down at Jaspin’s feet. All the confidence is drained from his voice.
“Your Lordship…, I wish this money to be used to provide for the commoners with what they really need. Food subsidies, funding infrastructural projects to increase productivity of agriculture… We tax the wealthy who produce books so we can provide for the poor… Why, your Lordship, would they be angry at us for that?”
no idea if these are the right numbers but im gonna go with it
cause now the people who dont have easy access to money… cant voice their opinion.
“…”
Ophelia looks a bit sad. It’s weird she didn’t say anything earlier
“…As part of this compromise, your royal highness, may I use your free printing?”
they have been silenced. while the rich can profit off of book sells and journals
yes… the tax can give back to the poor… but we cant give back their voice
“That’s true, my liege. That is why I am determined to help their voice be heard here.”
Augustin’s lip quivers.
