t even be priced correctly for the foreseeable future
mircea_popescu: for this reason. the fundamental incentive to living anywhere is whether you can stick it to the middle class through this mechanism or not. if you can'
t, they can stew in their own juices and play mahjong or whatever the fuck they play, bingo.
☟︎ mircea_popescu: and don'
t tell me "it ain'
t like that where i live". obviously it ain'
t, and you're an idiot for living there in the first place.

t illegal walmart is going to force-feed its workforce meth and go through 10x as many poor people.

nubbins`: and i don'
t think there were many flukes or windfalls this far east
pete_dushenski: "boomer" parents fluked into a historical windfall ~themselves~, like y'know, actual lottery winners. that their kids didn'
t manage to hold onto a dime of it is par for the course.
