Can they just sort out the housing price and cost of living so we're not forced to break the law to survive and get their thousand year sentence? Or nah?

    I don't think you understand how the system works.

    No of course, if people could understand the system, we wouldn't need the system.

    I think it was Confucius that said that society is best when the laws are simple and people understand the laws.

    I mean what do we need with 5,000-year-old Chinese mysticism when we've got Elon musk shoving metal pellets into your medulla oblongata that can play ads at you in your dreams?

    I'm pretty sure crimes like murder etc. are the ones that should be getting thousands year sentences. Has nothing to do with cost of living and housing price imo. I'm open to an explanation.
