tweet by Johann Hari: The core of addiction is not wanting to be present in life, because pour life is too painful a place to be. This is why imposing more pain or punishment on a person with an addiction problem actually makes their addiction worse.

      no that is capitalism

      the invisible hand of the market is taking them because used second hand catalytic converters are really valuable.

      they are entrepreneurs! try buying security equipment and buying online cameras and paying for bandwidth like a good capitalist until you can rent your side house to a cop aka be a vassal

        Strictly speaking, catalytic converters are only valuable because of emission reduction regulations put in place by foolish communists like youself sir.

        If the invisible hand of the market were to be set free, we could all simply go in raw as god intended.

          That’s not true, they are valuable because they contain Platinum. They are inherently valuable regardless of why they were installed.
