  • I find it funny i say ‘atlas shrugged changed my view’ and there seems to be this misinterpretation that i’m in favor of its message.

    I read the book… and was revolted by it. I saw it as the logical end point to the whole libertarian ideology. ‘Everyone exxists to be used, ssytems abused, and nothing matters but one’s own gratification and accumulation.’











  • See, when the Landlord charges reasonable rates, and actually provides services in exchange for that rent (helping update appliances to newer, having paperwork on hand for any code/inspections needed for property changes (that the landlord would ultimately benefit from,) and in general treating it as a matter of ‘I have obligations’ instead of ‘I will do nothing but I will absolutely blame the tennants for the inevetable crumbling of the property.’

    I dislike the concept at base level, but that is a someone who is trying to not be a scumbag.



  • Funny how til relatively recently the postal service was a model of solvancy and effeciancy, then MAGICALLY when lobbiests made demands for htier own service, the post office was told they had to fund pension for the next… sixty years or so in advance. To say nothing of service they were nolonger allowed to do, such as… get this. The post office could at one time do small denomination banking. Anything below five hundred bucks in the sixties. Which would translate into a few thousand dollars now. Used to be something they could do. Then they couldn’t.
