pedantic nitpicking: "People often want to aim for the biggest, most obvious target, and hit it smack in the bull’s eye. Of course with everybody else aiming there as well that makes it very hard to hit." this makes no sense. the

the aunt of a friend promised sick people to talk to angels about their issues for only a modest sum. i'm sure those people felt at least a bit better afterwards, because they were of options otherwise. on the other hand, they spent hu

for many people cars are a luxurious convenience. they also enable bad behavior and come at a terrible cost for everyone, including non-drivers. the reasons for this are manifold, but the problem is, that often there are no practical altern
