There are better ways to make our stuff. From food on up, not hypothetically, if someone would only invent them. Ways that exist and are in use and make more money than conventional methodologies but require a different set of skills or infrastructure or both than the common producer has at their disrposal. I like to think I have more impact helping to resolve that situation than buying some rinky dink residential toys.

It either works - or it doesn't.
You don' t get to play both sides of the fucking fence.
