it really does start young...it dawned on me recently that this was the whole point to musical chairs, and a number of other childhood "games" pushed onto us at school in bumfuck nowhere. there are so many of these shitass towns in the middle of nowhere, whose whole existence is basically just the local real estate robber barons trying to get one of their kids to "make it" so they can funnel a bunch of $ back into their fief.

and the backbone of all of it is exploiting a deliberately under-educated workforce...american capitalism is fucking disgusting.

i think the thing that pisses me off most is how long it took me to get around to the fact that everybody knows this, and just...either accepts their place or doesn't care because the system benefits them.

i'm autistic...until this realization clicked for me i was kind of running around in dismay wondering why noone seemed to care everything was collapsing...but this too is just another part of the plan, it's called "boom and bust investing/disaster capitalism"
