    Work ethic is good. But the work must be valued. Much work is undervalued. And more than just work is valuable. All decorations on everything - all design, all art, all entertainment - none of it is absolutely necessary. And yet it is and it can be valued. There are those with skill and those without, and none are instantly skilled. Values get very subjective. Sadly our world is binary: money or not.

      Next you're going to tell me that capitalism is an efficient system for the transfer of goods and services with a fiat currency.

      It's all political and there's more to life than money. I've already said too much. I'd explain further but not without getting paid.

      In any group of humans, half will be below average. What do you do with them? Gas them?

      Even after you liquidate them, you've now still got a group with half below average. When does it stop? With a few million elites and their housekeepers and child prostitutes?

      That's their plan, yes. Except it's the lowest of the low who will be left if their plan succeeds.

      But my guess is they'll keep farming smart but brainwashed humans.
