Whenever those states which have been acquired as stated have been accustomed to live under their own laws and in freedom, there

are three courses for those who wish to hold them: the first is to ruin them, the next is to reside there in person, the third is to permit them to live under their own laws, drawing a tribute, and establishing within it an oligarchy which will keep it friendly to you. Because such a government, being created by the prince, knows that it cannot stand without his friendship and interest, and does its utmost to support him; and therefore he who would keep a city accustomed to freedom will hold it more easily by the means of its own citizens than in any other way.

Both of these articles are related to workers rights, one coming from the initiative of a representative and the other through the initiative of the workers. In the Representative Cranwell Targets Brite-Mart for Low Wages article, representative Cranwell shows a concern for the worker's wages in Brite-Mart, alluding to the unfairness of the current wages as they are being "targeted for low wages". While with the Mayor Goode Seeks End to City Transit Strike article, refers mayor Goode responding to the pressures of the organized workers.
