3 days ago@Five this is fascinating. I’m sure I’m not alone in this: even just the internal bureaucracy and culture within a company suppresses (smothers) people, and, in some cases, deliberately prevents them from doing what they’re best at. I’m sure the theoretical free plumber you mentioned would be seen as a threat to the livelihoods of 50 different hedge fund backed outfits here in Las Vegas (Goettl for example…🖕you Goettl).
@Mickey7 I’m biased because alcohol has cost me loved ones and 90% of my personal experiences under the influence ended badly. I also learned that Putin eliminated social reforms in Russia so that he could sell his vodka and increase control of the population. Organizers had worked hard for those reforms to curb death rates. “Consumption” is a cute way of saying death by alcohol. Big alcohol can fuck off and I hope they go bankrupt. The sooner the better.
