Actually, SWSS affects "target player" -- that includes yourself. 3Y to
draw a card, or stuff one out of play for a while. Hmmmm. Not bad.

Additionally, target opponent pays *you* (not just subtracts money from
his Credstick). So, getting money for doing your opponent favors really
isn't that bad of a deal.

One way to make the card stronger would be to place the card face down
beneath SWSS, without looking at it. But the card's kind of rambling as
it is.

Yuh pays yuh money, yuh takes yuh chances. :)

Of course, you can always get rid of the card by not paying his Upkeep.
