I have no problem with Capitalism as whole. I get a kick out of driving the home depot parking lot with white Chevy Blazer and rolling down the windows so the day laborers see a black ball cap and aviator sun glasses and scatter like the wind.

The average Joe doesnt have the 60k for the "economical" Tesla. 60k a year doesnt afford one to buy ORganic milk or free range chicken for every nights meal. Its literally cheaper to shop the dollar menu at Tacobell.

Only person I know that worked at and really loved trader joes is a bisexual incel that dropped out in his junior year of college because he preferred to play league of legends rather than go to class. Then he moved back home and spent the next 10 years living with his parents and subsisting on a warehouse job. He couldn't build any savings because he kept blowing it on weed, his fursuit(s), and trips to visit groups of other fursuiters across the country.

contact has been sporadic for last few years so I didn't realize he had drunk the "its everyone else's fault except mine"-juice until someone asked him if he was a liberal fairly recently and he scoffed and said "no way I'm a fucking leftist okay" and started complaining that mainstream democrats were right wing scum.

anyway trader joes is okay I guess but I've got a deep discount at a snobbier place through a household member so I never go there anymore.
