True dat. I only ask because it seems to me that's the really important bit
. I'd even go so far to suggest that some anti-reparation folk may actually agree with some of the measures if framed in the right way. -
It is really important, obviously, but it doesn't get off the ground unless people accept the principle. Not sure most people even accept the principle...
