Re: Living in the wrong times... (none / 0)

Well, we can always choose to opt out and live like hairy hippies in the country and know what we're eating.

But, if we do that, we won't get Guaranteed Paid Employment™ and we won't be able to buy lots of cool stuff.

Moral: if we want to earn money to buy cool stuff, we should just keep on swallowing what they put on the supermarket shelves and shut up about it.
