…to a reasonable degree, at least.
Oh, sorry, you misjudge my goals. The United States of America is an internally collapsing slave empire built on stolen land. Developing these habits allows me to retain my access to culture and higher-end services while participating less in the slave empire’s corporate economy. I like haircuts by people who know their craft and I like watching entertainment and playing video-games. I don’t want my luxuries to contribute to corpo wealth.
Out of spite.
