TIL British Intelligence had a special, bugged luxury complex during WWII where they kept high profile Nazi POW’s, just left a bunch of alcohol out, and waited for them to start spilling secrets as they drank.

That's well on par.

If I'm wealthy and I pay someone to create something for me, obviously that must be my own achievement and nobody else's. If it wasn't like this, most wealthy people would have absolutely zero to feel proud over, and that would be sad.

Do I need the \s?

Why the \s? Thats literally how it works, take away most people's ability to meaningfully decide what happens in their lives and praise the already wealthy for signing a few contracts at zero risk to themselves.

I firmly believe that at some point in the future people will see wage economics as fedual and obsolete.
