Come on, fighting the worm is hard. They don’t believe in Christ, hide in the mountains and our superior carpet bombing is doing nothing. Now that they control the strait and are threatening our economy, we are basically in their hands. We will restart negotiations with these terrorists on Sunday!

Fine, thanks.

See? It never works!

Well yes, the rich are running out of their worker’s money after a while and that totally is an issue for them. Isn’t that exactly what they say all the time? I don’t get it.

It’s missing the part where the people offering the horse are also the ones openly doing the CSA.

Where the lemonade is made. Sweeeeet lemonade. Ok, ok, my age is showing…

Well, at least she had the somewhat sensible “I thought we agree that we all profit from this” addendum.

No no no, you don’t understand, we wanted to make money from the ports and produce the cars but they had to be the complex, oil-sucking ones because those are hard to produce and we and our partners made good profits from the oligopoly and making cheap and environment friendly cars is just cheating. It’s against the rules-based world order! Also, Uyghurs!

It’s such a great litmus test for any historical figure to just go to their Wikipedia page and look how many wifes and children they had and what ages the wifes were at marriage.

Unfortunately I feel this is still a slippery slope and one that also even AES haven’t been very good at handling. Who decides what is “some way of contributing”? Is community work, emotional support, spreading knowledge about a hobby, some form of art a “valid” way to “earn one’s living”? And how much of those you would have to do? What happens if you are hindered? Who decides?

I think without a post-scarcity (or severely degrowth) economy, these will stay hard to find a common ground on.
