And that's with the delay...

But the more people buy after they buy, the more they make.

No one is "sticking it to the man" doing this, they're making "the man" even more money by following behind them,.

No one using this would be trying to "stick it to the man" by doing this. They're trying to get some scrapes from the man by doing this.

You're talking about a bandaid that stops the bleeding but not infection.

We need a long-term solution
