I love capitalism, but hate it when it is not regulated.

there's no such thing as getting ripped off in the traditional sense, people should know what they're getting into before committing to buy something. this is particularly true when buying drugs. if you're stupid enough to deal with someone you don't know or don't know what the hell you're doing, don't expect things to go your way. in the neighborhood i grew up in people would roll bubblegum in oregano and try to pass it off as weed and i'm sure some dumbshits probably fell for it.

^^ But majority of society are followers. They do what they're told. They work where they're told and spend that money where, and on, what they're told to.

People indeed should have the right to make the choice themselves, but others also should not prey on others to make a buck.

obviously not, is there anything in nature that's "all positives"? but i think the advantages are greater than the disadvantages and that's why the silk road was such a huge success for milennia. i mean trade didn't get started yesterday.

oy, so now we need to hold everybody's hand and take responsibility for them because they are a bunch of mindless followers?

at some point you have to stop feeling so superior & let people make their own mistakes. they've been known to learn from them.
