Mr. Schuster, let me start by saying it is a pleasure to speak with you sa.

Your talk of these export tariffs is worrying to me. Not so much from a point of view from the Colts, but other smugglers and Junkers. The core principle of Junkers is freedom and profitability, hence most, if not all fly about as masters of their own ships, not answerable to a chain of command. I mention this to say, it is simply not possible for any one Junker to command others.

Your export tariff for Hessian diamonds is far from unreasonable. Profitable for all sides, as a matter of fact, if you can guarantee the safety of the various jumpholes in the Bering and Hudson systems. My suggestion is to create a channel on the Neural Net advertising these tariffs, adding better rates for those who pre-pay. If this were in place, I've no doubt any educated grouping of Junkers will bat an eyelash when your men.....let's say, aggressively collect these tariffs from individuals who refused to pre-pay.

I do hope I'm making sense here.
