More menus, buttons, options, configuration etc. Apple in minimalism. Don't make me think etc. Ideal world wouldn't have data limits, so they don't put in data limits as they design for the ideal world.

These suburbs where you can sell your 500 eur note aren't probably the ones you want to go to carrying a stack of 500 eur notes. You might end up selling them for 0.

Sugar is regulated and the price is kept high for farmers. But not for the consumers which is my point. Farmers are given subsidies in all crops so they can sell them in the global market at below market rates, not only for the population,

It's number #5 for you, but it's still on your list. If you had a preexisting expensive medical condition, it would be #1 on your list. Most other countries, it's not even considered a factor.

Yes disrupting social inertia is hard. But it's compounded in the states with medical insurance tied to their job. It's yet one more thing preventing people from moving, even if they want to. Not only that, if you move in the stat

You realise food is cheap because of taxes/subsidies. If we had to pay the true cost of food it would be expensive. And the politician that did wouldn't be liked much as well.
