Until a politician grows a pair nothing is going to change. I hear what you're saying outside of the tongue in cheek and it's such a mess. America has systemic issues which are by and large a result of what the system was designed to do.

Restrictive gun laws and ban shit. Fuck 2A and all the assholes screaming about them. If people are consistently proving they are not responsible enough for what the constitution affords them, fuck the constitution. It needs revising.

As it should be IMHO. Nothing is stopping you dropping cash for shit in the untracked economy which is massive but if you want to be a part of the larger system and all its benefits you need to be prepared to play by the rules that are designed by and large to protect people.

I will continue to argue that GenX is the only true technology literate generation because we grew up with the technology as it evolved. Future generations are more consumers not partners in the technology they own.

Yea it's a vast generalization but Apple is a good analogy of this. Most people now just want "a technology that works" without any understanding or control over how it works. That's a recipe for technological serfdom under the new generation of technocratic companies designed to own us.

Am I ever going to own a free phone? Probably not, but that doesn't excuse me from at least understanding from a high level all the players involved in my phone and where they're generating value from me.

It amazes me how salty people are about this. I switched over to Bluetooth headphones. Battery life is amazing. No issues syncing. Quality is great. No 3rd party app needed. It's a nothing-burger.

Imagine something as stupid as this living rent free in someone's brain

My old boss who is now my bosses boss is like this. It's the best leader you can have IMHO. I don't want a yes man. I want someone to challenge my ideas and similarly I will challenge theirs.
