Because it is Lone Star is what my emotions answer. Maybe it’s just some kind of illusion I want to maintain, some drek-headed belief that I don’t work for a greedy, grasping megacorp—I work for Lone Star, chummer, for the good of my fellow man. Yet how different is Lone Star from the other megacorps? When you get right down to it, isn’t law enforcement just another product or service? The Star doesn’t keep the peace and enforce the law because doing so is a Good Thing. It does it because a variety of governments pay it good nuyen to keep the peace and enforce the law. The Star is just another corporation making profits by meeting a demand in the marketplace.
