People tend to forget about that part. Money is what is exchanged with you for your labor and then you exchange that for goods. Sure an increase in funds would mean a bunch of people could live better for a while. But then trash would pile up, waste water would become a monumental issue. A lot of gross, vile, disgusting, and extremely necessary work would suddenly stop getting done.

Everyone likes to pretend that they’d be willing to step up and tackle those jobs. But they really won’t. I’m positive that the percentage of people willing to do those jobs for enough resources to live comfortably is in the single digits. I know damn sure the amount of doctors willing to work for a one bedroom, one car, and enough food living situation is in the single digits.

Manic pixie dream girls.

Reasons.

Exact opposite. I need a plot where the characters aren’t complete bone heads and the plot needs to be deeper than “some dude grabs a knife”. Because of this I tend to enjoy horror thrillers more than slashers. It’s the reason most of my favorites are things like “The Crazies”, “You’re Next”, and “The Strangers”. That isn’t to say that I need high fidelity or effects. Some good entries there are “Splinter”, “Vacancy”, and (to a lesser degree) “Rest Stop”.

As an adult the very first thing we try to feed ourselves are our morals and principles. And once we find out that they don’t fill your stomach? Well. You’d be surprised what you’ll do to not starve.

Pretty sure only aristocrats dressed like that.
