“Poverty exists not because we cannot feed the poor, but because we cannot satisfy the rich.”

Norway fucked up on eggs this year. They feared overproduction, so they made a subsidy for egg producers not producing.... resulting in an egg shortage this Easter.

I heard they jacked up prices due to the Avian Flu. They culled over 80,000,000 egg laying hens

Eggs were. At least for me, I can no longer afford eggs.

I don't shame people for buying unnecessary things. But, I will think you are a little stupid if you are nearly starving but have a brand new car. You aren't responsible for the system you live in, but you can at least try to make it a little better for yourself.

I'm not talking about people that just spend some money for something they like, quality of life is important. I mean people that will literally cripple themselves financially just for a status symbol. Especially if you have people that rely on you.

Shame the rich who can waste money on a 100k Patek Philippe fucking watch.

You shall only have the things you need to be a good worker robot.

Yup - God forbid poor folks have nice things rather than funneling every penny they earn to the rich to satisfy their ever-increasing hunger for money.

The average person earns £1,000,000 in their lifetime, and I struggle to see the justification in anyone, and I mean anyone being worth 100s, 1000s, or even over 100,000 human lifetimes.

It's sickening to see hard-working people having to fight month after month to survive on meager earnings while some dickheads are out there buying megayachts that cost a human lifetime per year just to maintain.
