how about funding less retirement, enjoying life to the fullest then pulling the plug quickly before 60 ? its stupid to spend ur retirement savings on cancer drugs or whatever …
there are countries where people save for their retirement (and pay for health insurance) in pesos, rands and whatnot… alot of people outside of the us and the developed world are one cancer away from bankruptcy, and thus, death is a way less painful exit. people in the phillipines earn 233$ on average per month, can their health system afford melanoma treatement for everyone ? i doubt so. is it worth to spend all ur life’s effort on one random drug ? … americans (and all developed world citizens) need to be less centric really…
let me introduce you to this thing called visa. and even when obtained: as a migrant you won’t be welcomed (mildly) and sometimes be considered an alien…
also women with their high maintenance behaviour: price inflated cosmetics that come in not so ecofriendly packaging (both the amount of paperwaste, and the amount of cellulose took to make said paper ) , their non eco-friendly fashion and fast fashion, even the tech industry that sell ewaste iphones for 5 times their worth and creating economic inflation in the process: genders also have different carbon footprints

i really can’t grasp what is special about her music/talent (except having a special medical condition that acts as pr material to promote her name, and you can tell when a musician is not of value when they invest in fake breasts ): i guess her audience is too small-brained to notice this crap

anyone who likes something I don’t is an idiot!
idiot in my regards ? ofc. idiot in general ? not really. this world is in fact run by idiocy. am i special ? not necessarily … but i am different. hope i am allowed such trait :/
i am no artist but also can’t force my definition of art on anyone: if her work is considered legitimate art so be it. but at least i am hopefully allowed to doubt that fact …

say essentials workers like nurses and teachers dont show up for work (car mechanics, refinery workers etc … since those are the backbone of the economy) , the landlord wouldnt have an income but also if he had money he wouldn’t achieve anything with it given the basic services aren’t available, so his money would be worth jack $hit and that would be the collapse of society
man banks (and the central bank) can have (and print) all the money they want but good luck finding someone to fix your yacht… and even abroad ur currency would have lost credibility and no one would be willing to accept ur freedom bank notes. but its also a fragile equilibrium between fucking ur society but not too much so the money u r making could still be credible…
depends on which country maybe…but at some time even doctors efforts would be vain when everyone is living in tents and catching cold: u would have to prescribe antibiotics agressively and that would cause further damage to society…we are debating socialism at this point really (at least what i think it is)…(since u’r implying free medical care for instance)
