31. So your solution is???
Tue Apr 1, 2025, 05:19 PM
Tuesday

Of course folks buy stuff from capitalist companies, drive their car around to support their life, etc. Back in the day, some of my friends decided to live on the land rather than work for the man. That lasted about six months. We live in a monopolistic capitalist country. We are the recipients of a terrible health care system, declining career opportunities, a housing policy that squeezes folks into homelessness, etc. etc. We resist as best we can. Folks that contribute to this forum are not the problem.
