[How much time do you have to talk about economics? he almost snaps out, before catching himself at the last second. No, he's started. He might as well continue. This is the problem with caring too much.]

[There's got to be a simpler way to frame this. He thinks for a moment, then presents the situation as follows:]

My position was once held by a man who wanted to bleed the country dry and prey on the weakest people in society. He did it very successfully, in fact, for a long time. Law enforcement was useless against him, because he had most of them in his pocket. Nobody could do anything by legal means.

I killed him. Now I'm taking care of people like him, those in power who are using and manipulating the poor and vulnerable. And when I'm done with that, I'm going to use the money they stole to rebuild my country and protect the people within it who most need protecting.

That's why I do it.
