It literally does just work that way. A piece of paper is a piece of paper. "But we won't make as much money" is the part that holds it together. Contracts and laws in general are no more or less than a pretext to exercise class power. They're broken at will in other contexts. The US was literally founded on it.

Tell me you don't understand how a contract works without telling me you don't understand how a contract works.

There are legal liabilities for breaking a contract. It's not that simple.

Tell me you don't interact with people without a keyboard without telling me [useless repetition]. Fucking weirdo.

Yes it is that simple. The law is, and only is, a mechanism for people with power to exercise that power under the veil of legitimacy. Ask any Indian tribe. Ask anyone with x amount of money attempting to litigate a contract with someone with 1000x amount of money.

The reality of the system cannot be disputed without looking like a fucking joke.
