There is just no excuse for bullshit like that.

I don't know who I thought the buyer would be, but I wasn't surprised to see it was someone from Japan.

 

[Admin.]

Fucking rich people.

Which makes it even worse, since 10 million USD is 1.5 billion yens!

That sounds like a lot!

A whole lot of LOT!

They could have bought decent houses for maybe 30 families with that money.

Capitalism works.

@Lily, it was sarcasm.

@Lily, it was sarcasm.

I am only confused because capitalism can work. What we're experiencing across the globe is a movement towards even greater unfettered capitalism...that's the real problem.

To get there, world governments are becoming authoritarian, or at least moving in that direction.

@Admin. was beside himself that he couldn't gather the necessary funds required for this purchase.

You really should think before you post, unless you don't mind setting yourself up for a fall.

See, now this is the kind of statement that reveals extreme stupidity.


Do you people think that money is gone....forever!?!?!!?

Hint: It is not gone. It has only been transferred from one entity to another.


That means the entity that now possesses the money could do any number of things with it....including funding the construction of "decent houses".

 

[LotusBud]

Capitalism works.

Yeah. Not so much.

Followed closely by Envy.

I suggest you stop in that case.

I'm not envious of anyone who has more coins in their pockets than I do. You all here seem to be. It's not for me to tell anyone how they spend their own money. It is a ridiculous waste to spend that kind of money on a fucking handbag, but it ain't my money, so why would I care?

Oh yeah. (Cue Bernie Sanders accent) "Millionaires and Billionaires and Oligarchs," right?

It's a "control" issue.

I have no feeling about this transaction beyond the curiosity than anyone would spend $10 million on a handbag.

How can I disagree that there are better ways to spend that money? It is objectively true. There are much better ways to spend that money.

As for greed, that was a tangential comment. Maybe you shouldn't care about how other people see the world. There's nothing you can do about it.

Seems just as fruitless to judge how others see the world. Yet, you never stop.

Who's judging? I'm just telling you how fucked up it is to be ruled by Envy and base an entire political ideology on it.

Are you saying some envy you? Or Trump. Why would anyone envy Trump? I envy truths honesty, fair play, justice. You don’t Trump will leave you high and dry

Greed=selfishness=the cornerstone of conservatism.
