    You mean resistance in the form of things like labor laws that stop the exploitation of children, and environmental laws that stop corporations destroying the earth ? Probably.

    I know he has issues, but this was a rational response. Those need to be encouraged, not discouraged. ;P

        No, it's not, really. It's a regurgitation of something he read. If I try to discuss it with him, he will call me names. I was just taking a shortcut.

            Please, for your sake, seek help. Your quality of life will increase in ways you did not know it could. So far, we have pledges that would cover a trip to the psychiatrist roughly every two weeks, and would at least start to cover meds. The only restriction is that we have to agree to the particular doctor, just to make sure you are not having a friend print out receipts for you.

                  No, it was started by my saying I was interested in what I was reading, even tho I don't agree with it 100%.

                    I'm not joking. You agree to seek help, we can pay for a good chunk, if not all. No money goes to you, only straight to the doctor or pharmacy. Please, seek help.

                        That is why it goes straight to the Dr or Pharmacy. We know your mom doesn't give you permission to play with credit.

                                  Monopolies are more common when their are complex regulations, or regulators that regulate in favor of the monopoly (which is all too common) In a free market, if there ever was a monopoly, it would have a hard time competing with business that can offer a better product at a lower price, which would cancel their monopoly.

                                      None of us are going to pay you to play doctor. $$ go straight to Doctor or Pharmacy.

                                          Things can only go one way in your mind, you have so limited your options. Please Seek Help, it might open up the ways money can move into and out of your wallet. I am not so crazy as to argue with you. I will only beseech you to seek help. And belittle you.
