But the gushing curses faded into an incredulous stare. The Vagabond was breathing heavily--"inhale, exhale." "It's unfair," he murmured, the paper already a twisted shred. "It's inhuman," he howled, glaring with bloodshot eyes at his awestruck companion...

Chief among these necessities: 1) complete licensing and rationing; 2) rigid Government mopping up of a large part of consumer income via taxes and compulsory...
