These people are genuinely sick in the head, this level of pointless greed is not normal. Of course they aren’t going through with it.

Exactly like gambling addicts. They are blinded by capitalism, because capitalism is nothing but gambling, and not only are these people addicts, the game has completely usurped society itself. Just think about it- what dictates our society? It’s not our values, or ideals, our wishes and wants and dreams, it’s the economy.

The Economy is a fucking golem that has overtaken democracy, we have no say, what The Economy wants always takes precedence, and the only thing The Economy wants is MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE. You know what else does that? Cancer.

  Exactly! And like cancer, it will eventually consume and destroy its host. It may take time, but it will.
