A ship cannot operate on land without carrots, sticks, and blackmail.

People just get out and walk away.

Admiralty works at sea because sailors will drown if they leave the ship.

The captain of a ship is "god."  If he does not like what a sailor is doing, he can hang him from a yardarm.

The Michigan Assembly (TMA) is being run like a boat, but it is on Land.

The Michigan Coordinator gives people carrots by being chummy with them and giving them things to do, provided they do everything his way and they defend him.

The Michigan Coordinator beats people with sticks when they "misbehave."  He reprimands them in front of others, gossips about them, and questions their character behind their backs.  And he accuses them of doing the things he does.

The Michigan Coordinator uses the "Agreement" people signed as blackmail to keep them in line.  He does not allow anybody to attend General Assembly (GA) meetings or receive meeting minutes if they are not party to his adhesion contract, which is effectively a non-disclosure agreement.  Those who are kicked out are verbally abused in front of everyone, and most people want to avoid that.

Many people do not even board the boat.

Sea Jurisdiction tactics on Land.

 

Some people who have walked off the boat have continued to watch what is going on by standing next to it.  The Michiganian Free Press (MFP) has been watching, but the crew has retreated below deck and the captain has been closing the curtains on the boat's windows.

The MFP publisher no longer has access to TMA communications channels.  Surprise, surprise.  That is what dictators do; they shut down The Press.

This is supposed to be a Public Government.  P. U. B. L. I. C.

How long are michiganians going to put up with this?

And how are those Pillars coming?
