 	I don't see this whole affair as a chance to spread the galactic anti-corporate revolution the way President Fisher does, of course. I make no secret of my stance on Trans-Stellars, but I also know that we're better off with Sol than without. The 'Silent Collapse' was two hundred years ago, but we still bear the scars from it. When the Scandinavian Union pulled out support for the Sivian colonization project, SolGov saved us. I do mean saved us, sure as if they'd fished us out of a life pod. There were no factories, no steel, no concrete on Sif until the Engineering Corps built Radiance and New Reykjavik. Corporations and regional governments cowered from the Karan pirates, until the Marines chased them out. Whether Sivian or Karan, you owe the roof over your head to the Sol Confederate Government. With that great debt in mind, how dare we turn our backs on the Bowl, or Abel's Rest, or Nyx, when they need us! How dare we let oligarchs prey on the weak! How dare we choose not to act when we have, by virtue of our votes in the Assembly and our voice within the halls of public debate, the means to share our peace and prosperity with the rest of our people!\

-	This is what I mean by SolGov being the only true republic, the only state founded for the common good. The 'human spirit' West croons on about isn't our industriousness, or our skill at arms. If humanity-- if this Terran culture is commendable for anything, it is that we assist our fellows. We take in Casteless Skrell, Unbound Unathi, republican Tajaran. We pass around the hat when someone's house burns down. We help our friends, our neighbors, and even strangers. The fact that Martei and Harper are perverting this impulse, padding their juntas with the air of legitimacy to inspire honest people to ride to their defense, is the reason their state is unconscionable, the reason it was was born flawed, the reason we cannot suffer it to continue, much less help it on its way.\

 	Now, I'm sure you've noticed by now, that I haven't said much more than three words about technoprogressivism, or transtech, or whatever the word du jour is. Frankly, that's on purpose. 'Transtech' has never once been about technology. The Icarus Front-- the old one, that united us and took us to the stars, not the new one we spend forty hours a week arguing with about healthcare-- The Icarus Front was a popular revolution, you know. Hel, they were Marxists. It was a world where the kind of lack of accountability, the entrenched oligarchy and geographical class divide that we're dealing with now was spiraling out of control. In the old United States, the rich and powerful got the technology to grow loyal subjects in tubes, to make drone intelligences smarter in some ways than a human could ever be, to-- well, to do what Angessa Martei's done, only with no SolGov to stop her. Meanwhile, the 'little people' in the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and other 'forgotten' parts of the world were left behind, hopelessly. I don't mean to downplay the importance of the Gray Tide, but if you look at historical accounts from that era, the thing that really united the Front was the knowledge that, if they didn't act immediately, they'd be seen as 'externalities' by immortal superintelligent businesspeople and politicians. The take-away from the Gray Tide should never have been that 'nanotechnology is dangerous'-- it should have been 'nobody should be able to destroy an entire city without facing consequences.'\
