    Why benefit society when you can just fuck it over whilst profiting from short term gains.

    God I hate how this planet functions. Tax the fucking rich already.

      Taxxing won’t do anything because structurally the Rich have the most power in the system. The only way to fix this is to systematically remove the Rich through whatever means and remove the means which enables them to exist.

            And when the planet is about to go tits up they’re just going to “thank us for all the fish” and say “so long” as they disappear into a different dimension. Truly selfish

      There is a massive drive to legalize weed. How is banning this any different than banning marijuana?

      Do not like smoking myself but not sure how to justify the hypocrisy of thinking we should ban this vice over the other.
