Cost of living, OP/ED........

[CapnAwesome]

I don't think that either eating large quantities of meat or watching cable T.V. are part of the cost of 'living'. I don't eat meat or own a T.V. and I still seem to be living quite well.

YOU, ok but so what? All you are arguing by this is a justification of "cant afford it, then you are not equal to me"

You are not the entirety of society. The rich are only one part of a society. They have no problem selling to every class but want none of the responsibility to keep things affordable. It is profit driven having nothing to do with quality of life or equality in the eyes of the government. We have a plutocracy now and only an idiot thinks that is sustainable long term.

Now if I point out a billionaire who would agree with me it might be incumbent of you to ditch such a bad position.

I could afford it, I just don't care for either of them. They certainly aren't part of the cost of 'living.' It's just something that you want but isn't necessary to a happy life at all. In fact both are more than likely detrimental to it. If you want luxuries you should have to pay for them.
