    I don’t know that you can in business or political situations. I think if a man showed up to a business meeting or a legislative session wearing a paisley suit, they would get screamed at about not having proper decorum.

            I’m pretty sure relying on food stamps and soup kitchens is not a revolution.

            And if you’ve ever had to survive that way, you’d know it’s fucking horrible. Especially if you have kids.

            So I guess keep wishing because people don’t want to have to resort to that.

              Especially if you have kids.

              Exactly, I’m fine with being on edge, but its not right to force that on kids if you can help it.

                I’m sorry, but you’re not going to insult people into your revolution.

                You’re also going to have a very hard time convincing everyone to significantly lower their standard of living because they have no money.
