    Never, ever in the history of Earth has the ruling class decided “hmmm I’m starting to feel guilty about rolling around in a pool full of gold Krugerands maybe this is a little much”

    Yeah, reformers have never existed.

      Note I said “ruling class” as a whole. Of course there are reformers, madmen, vegetarians, philosophers, and so on sprinkled throughout.

      that goes without saying, friend. But, feel free to continue to point out the obvious that everyone knows. It’s fun and not droll at all, I dub thee “captain no fucking shit”

      Now, please point out what my goal post was, and how it has been changed IN ANY WAY by your contribution. Go into great detail!

      Reformers don’t feel guilty. They’re trying to stave off the inevitable guillotines.
