I don’t think they killed local bookstores. I think your average person is just lazy, and publishers were too greedy to allow the audiobook to be included with the purchase of a book.

The fact that they employ a million people is insane, I didn’t realize they were that large. I think laying off half the workforce to replace with robotics is not in acceptable but good. I have been working my entire life and it’s a huge waste of my life, and I look forward to robotic automation.

The thing is, you can’t stop progress just because you miss the way things were. Things are always going to progress. The future can be cool as well.

As far as benzos and stuff, maybe the Democrats shouldn’t be so shitty to everyone who is slightly different from they are. Running a business is something most people just don’t understand. The standard isn’t what you wish were true so much as it’s what you have to do in order to compete. Capitalism is a race to the bottom, the victory of the ruthless, it’s a bad game. Until we get a better economic system, we are kind of stuck with mega corporations. It’s not a choice. It’s what people vote for along with mass surveillance, and many other terrible laws. If you want to hate someone, go hate groups like focus on the family because they are the ones who ruin your society more than anyone and distract people from economic issues by getting these assholes elected who despise the idea of a social culture.
