Proposal: Keep a Loose Grip
Timed out, 2-2. Failed by JonathanDark.

Repeal the rule Equipment, along with all of its subrules.
As it stands, the equipment rule is a flat boost to Habanero (who scammed a bunch of Fame early in the dynasty) and a bit of a boost to me and JD (who have had more opportunities than others to gain Fame and Medals).
Thinking about how to remedy it, though, it seemed clear to me that the mechanic wasn’t really doing anything useful anyway. It confusingly parallels Items, everything is expensive (by the time you’d won enough Fame legitimately to own the Cool Sticker you’d almost have won the dynasty), and at its heart it’s a Rich Get Richer mechanic - you earn the currency to buy these things by winning, which in turn makes it easier to keep winning.
Thus my proposed solution!

I don’t even know what Equipment does
