I'm going to operate on another possible assumption: that C Nomic exists
full of objects which are exact duplicates of their B Nomic counterparts.

But first, regardless of what happens with my transaction, I transfer all of
my mack to Votes For Sale, Inc.

I submit the following transaction:
START TRANSACTION
The name of this game is C Nomic.
I do the following action 100 times: As Da Boss, I cause Votes For Sale,
Inc. (A C Nomic corporation) to transfer all of it's mack to Votes For Sale,
Inc. (A B Nomic Corporation).
FINISH TRANSACTION

But why? Rule 4E83 says that "Any change to the gamestate of one of these
nomics happens simultaneously in the other one."

Scenario 1: Causing VFS (B Nomic Branch) to gain mack causes its C Nomic
branch to gain the corresponding amount of mack. The transaction results in
me multiplying my mack holdings by 2^100.
Scenario 2: Causing VFS (B Nomic Branch) to lose mack causes its *C* Nomic
branch to lose the corresponding amount of mack. I am now bankrupt (maybe
the C Nomic Congress will bail me out for submitting a subprime
transaction).
Scenario 3: It cannot be determined how much mackerel I would have if this
succeeds, therefore the transaction fails.
Scenario 4: C Nomic never had any points, or a VFS corporation. The
transaction fails.
