~Hides~

Now, this is not something I support personally (at least not yet), but its an idea thats come up in the tavern a few times, Chard patriots are already willing to do this...

The idea was that since a good proportion of the hides Chard has in stock right now are from merchant dumpers, we would send out a few people as well to return the favour...

Not the most ethical of ways to get rid of hides, but an idea nonetheless, and I promised the citizens I'd at least bring it up in town council, even if I don't support it myself.

I personally full heartedly oppose this idea. And I think that it would be foolish for the Town Council to back/support/endorse/stand by and watch this happen. As the official governing body of Chard, it is our duty to stand up and be leaders for the people. If our neighbors are not happy with us, we will not prosper to our fullest potential. Dumping hides on foreign markets is one of the surest ways to loose any support.

I, along with all of you and many before us, have worked hard to foster strong relationships with our neighbors. A wise man once told me, "the key to a successful merchant is relationships." I find this 100% true, people come to us with good deals because we have a good relationship with them, because we treat our neighbors with the utmost respect.

We are all citizens of England, and may soon need to join together against a mightier enemy, why jeopardize the work we have done to make friends with our neighbors.

I do not support this "step on others to get to a higher ground" approach to solving this epidemic.

Do to others what you want people doing to you.

It goes something like that ... dosent it ?

I do not concur with any decision made to any kind of dumping.
1. its against the law.
2. we know ourselves how bloody irritating it is
3. Just because other people behave like jerks does not means we have to.

We could use the hides as lottery tickets .. .no one wants then anyway

Mike pokes the lazy mayor again

You're supposed to post too ya know!

But I'm glad nobody agrees to it, we can say pretty much unanomously that the town council does not condone hide dumping and will not seek that method of hide usage to solve our problems
