        I think it’s picking nits, economic destruction can be just as complete as military. People starve all over the world every day. Some people live in slavery to make the shirts Walmart sells, etc.

      Maybe “work” is the actual problem. Maybe people shouldn’t waste their entire lives serving murder profiteers. Maybe it’s always been a garbage slaver system.

        Of course it is, but I think it’s only marginally better than Walmart. I mean after all, Walmart IS a force for good in the world, right?
