I made a comment about GC's used gear section. That's where I get most of my stuff.

Still expensive haha.

Yeah it tends to be, but I occasionally find things like a drum rack for $90.

No I did.

so you are now informed, good.

I've known how the whole thing works for a while. It's not a gigantic worldwide slavery scheme like the link seems to claim. It's simply that the corporations have the power they do because they are given it by those in the government. The corporation keeps the politician elected, and the politician does favors for the corporation. Ex: GE paid nothing in taxes last year.

Simply put, corporations exist to make money. They're not good, not evil, they just are. They've done good things and bad things, but it's all just to make as much money as they can. It's silly to hate them, but at the same time stupid not to keep any eye on them.

I don't think it'll ever get to the point where we're "enslaved" in a more literal sense. There's simply too many people for such a thing to realistically happen. Fixing the problem is all about electing politicians who won't play the lobbying game or play favorites.

Why thank you. Here, have this.

kaboom!

yalalalalalalalalalalalallaalalalooo!!

hey, stop making fun of my people. I KEEEL YOU!

i can read this
أن ينصركم الله فلا غالب لكم.
"If God is there to help you none will overcome you" this is the rest of the verse "and if He forsake you, who will help you other than Him? So only in God should the faithful place their trust." (3:160)

the writing is beautiful i want to tattoo something like that, but ofcourse not a verse from the quran (&)

He just sat there playing philosophical games to dance around the issues and to call me stupid, like a typical liberal. He's probably in some college course on philosophy and thinks he's so smart when he regurgitates what his professor told him.

I've never met anyone so detached from reality.

I don't think he even understood the point he was trying to make by the end of the argument.
