Quote:If you are coming to Gallia from Sirius and are anything but a junker you are a smuggler to the lawfuls, worse actually, you are hostile.
Such narrow mindedness!! One would think that with an economy that relies on outside trade that Galic authorities wouldn't be so hostile. I've been running my freighter through the system and based on what places are paying for what I deliver, it's greatly needed.
To assume is the mother of all screw ups! "All outsiders are smugglers?" Spare me! That's just generalizing. Some of us just want, if nothing else, understanding enough that we can buy and sell. I don't think the authorities know just how much some are willing to pay for Gaelic wine! That should be a compliment!
BTW, there are a some in Gallia whome I've spoken with and developed some good relations with and we understand one another. I will keep them nameless for their safety.
To those who feel the need to blow to bits anyone who enters their space.....and you know who you are, re-think your strategy. Not everyone has hostile intentions. You'll only push people away from bringing in what is needed and your own will be the ones who suffer. Think about it.
