In fact, I was wrong, there are salaries:
      (3) (D)  At the end of each week, each player who published at
               least one on-time judgement during that week gains a D
               Note.
although I swear that wasn't there the last time I read the rule.  But
it doesn't account for appeals, and Notes are a fairly weak currency
anyway, being impossible to lose and hard to spend.

But of course I'm a miser of Notes, just like I was of VCs. ;)

Not really.  Even the contracts that define dependent actions aren't
really allowed to (Rule 1728: "the Rules explicitly authorize...").
