    What if in this zany world there were no billionaires? Would people still be unhappy with their standard of living? My guess is yes but it’s also a catch 22 because billionaires use the sliding scale to minimize wealth for the general populous and maximumize wealth for themselves.

    I haven’t bought from Amazon or a big box store for years now. Fuck ‘em. First choice is second-hand, if not then I buy local.

    If I absolutely cannot solve my issue without plastic shit from China, I just buy it directly and wait a month.

    There’s no way Amazon would be that close to a community, they couldn’t make any money off the shade they would accidentally be providing.

    I recommend: the series electric dreams, episode “autofac”.

    Watchable on… Amazon
