    “stressed behaviours” sounds like something you’d say to describe a herd of animals.

      Have you been to a Walmart, especially late at night? That’s a pretty accurate description.

      Not just that, make sure you pay your employees shit and be a back door for cheap Chinese goods. Pay them so low that they’re on government assistance so the taxpayers are picking up part of the bill. Then they pay the top people all the money you’re stealing from the government and low wage workers.

        Alternatively it’s a single crossroads (the point in the middle they all meet) of 6 roads.

    Well you see, when the rich keep trying to take more and more, they start getting less and less. We’re all sitting in a bubble of limited resources.
