Could this be the end of the road for plucky Canadian Lance Stroll?

Probably not, no.

I see what you're saying, the tokens represent access to a finite amount of resources and creating more tokens won't create more resources. I get that.

But if the problem isn't with the amount of resources but with their distribution, then redistributing the existing tokens out of the hands of the greedy hoarders must help the rest, mustn't it?

Edit: I can't believe I'm sitting here arguing with someone on the goddamn Internet. Must be out of my damn mind

Ok but the way I see it there are 100 people and 1000 tokens. Instead of every person getting 10 tokens, one guy has 998 tokens and everyone else argues over the remaining 2. Would killing the one rich guy not free up some tokens for the rest of us?

Imagine being so naive as to believe massive wealth hording deprived others! What turkeys! Amirite?

I'm from New Zealand and my mother still brings this up every time France is mentioned in any context.

Folks on Lemmy seem to love shitting on multivitamins. I brought some about a year ago because I was run down and getting sick all the time. Im a Chef so inconsistent diet and drinking alcohol kind of come with the deal. Anyway nower days I feel more energetic and my immune system seems more robust. The daily multivitamins I take cost $0.25 each.

Fark was huge for me back then. Also things like ICQ were the main ways I kept in touch with friends in the pre smart phone times.

I spent the best part of a day there and don't think I came across the pet zone. Amazing market!
