I wonder what happens when enough people can't afford this cartel pricing? History shows that when society prevents people from living comfortably they prefer to harm society than participate in it. Maybe the bread and circuses will hold this time for sure.
Between grocery prices and 12 different streaming services who keep upping their prices, we're getting gouged on the bread and circuses too.
While we can't skip food, we can skip laying for circuses...
Yaar!
Then people vote for the fascists, and things get even worse
It's no mystery and it's been happening forever... Attacks on the homeless, imprisonment, gated compounds, etc.
