My position is that the rate should align with the level of economic development. Because it is always about a balance, a balance of interests, and it should reflect this balance.

A balance between national producers, for example, agricultural producers who are interested in it.

From my own personal experience and observation of others, being a workaholic is the most common area of imbalance...

You may ask 'Why do we stay up there if it's so dangerous?' Well, we stay because Anatevka is our home. And how do we keep our balance? That I can tell you in one word: tradition!

Our tendencies toward goodness... are as innate as our tendencies toward intelligence; we could do well with more of both.
