  • I asked a hypothetical question you silly Billy, feel free to answer it.

    Or to be honest and just say “hey, if people who make more money get hospitalized, boo hoo to them.” (Even though globally, we’re probably in the 1% of wealth etc but pesky reality don’t matter none.)

    Edit: Alternatively, how about you be a woman in a nice business suit walking alone through Main and Hastings after dark and after a day of defending the poor in court? Do that a few dozen times and let me know how safe you feel. (Don’t worry, if anything does happen, I will have a sympathetic “oh noes” for you too!)

    But a capitalism where workers’ wages/suffering etc were included in how people considered the price would also be lovely. (Ie, people actually get upset about sweatshop labour so the price of sweatshop goods increases yo offset that disgust) would also be lovely.

    There’s a huge gap between theory/hope and reality.
