I can't help you if you don't want to do the research.
I can't force the knowledge into your head, if you want to operate from a position of supposition, how do you want me to help you?
More supposition?
How much do you need?
Do you really need gold toilets and 470 pairs of shoes?
I mean, if you do, and your neighbors agree that you have it coming, feel free to order it from the webz, but you got to know that what you consume comes from the work of others, unless you did ALL the work yourself.
Conspicuous consumption will go away, for the most part.
I mean, really, once your house is paid for, and supper comes in every night, how much more do you need?
If you think that we all just need to know a certain passage from a certain book and we'll "get it" then you may as well live as a hermit but that's not how discussions go, or not how they go well anyway. It's not super wonderful to begin a conversation with required reading, as if for some course you are teaching.
You imply that doing the research leads you to the same conclusions as you. You presume much about me but don't engage with me honestly here. That's to both our loss.
