$25 to rent the movie, one watch within max 24 hours after you start watching it... Or $5 more to own it. Scammers.

I am just baffled by how many people pay idiotic prices with "life just got more expensive, what are you gonna do"

If people happily keep buying all the overpriced shit it's just gonna get worse..

I wish wages inflated as much as the price of everything...

Yeah it's pretty great how the "cost" of things go up but the folks involved in the actual production of said goods are not getting paid more, makes one wonder....

Infinite growth is not possible in the long run and as soon as customers, resources, physical production space, or anything that is currently being exploited really, cannot keep up anymore, our current economy will fold. I dunno what comes after, probably some big war that the modern day slavers can blame it on.
