There won’t be any limits after people snap. Back to the jungle we go. Don’t worry, it’s not like we were ever actually civilized. We hid our savagery behind the economic system

    Unfortunately, borrowing money is way too easy compared to how hard it is to pay it off. The snap comes at the regular person’s expense and lenders just get bailed out. Then they guilt you into feeling bad for being poor so you buy things to make you feel like you’re not poor and the cycle continues.

        It’s like playing Russian roulette. A big gun, 100 chambers, one bullet. You pull the trigger, click, no bang, you get richer. Click, you get richer. Click, click, click, you are wealthy. Click, click, click, you’re a billionaire. Click, bang, your brain is splattered all over the wall. That’s the game the rich are playing. You can’t keep winning forever.
