I’m in my 30s so I should be used to this by now, but this shit is getting so stressful guys. I have no savings, my checking account is drained every month with rent, and if there’s ever a serious emergency I have no safety net, I’m legitimately fucked. I’m one unplanned expense away from absolute ruin. Those in the same boat as me, how do you deal with this?

    How is stealing a product any different than wage theft from large corporations, families like the sackler being literal drug dealers and paying a fine, etc.

    In my og comment I clearly stated that when people feel like society isn’t working for them then what use is following the rules.

    FYI: It’s easier to get some XM4s to sell for bills and food than to steal a whole food shop.

        Thanks.

        The way I see life is we are here by chance for a limited time. Imma do what I have to do survive, but not just survive but enjoy it too.

        I have this view for all laws really. I don’t not kill people because it’s illegal, more I don’t want to kill people and if I did then still the cons far outweighs the pros. It’s just a matter of choosing where you draw the line.

      It’s not different, both are unethical and illegal.

      In my og comment I clearly stated that when people feel like society isn’t working for them then what use is following the rules.

      So if you feel you’re entitled to a luxurious lifestyle without having to work for it, you can steal and rob?

      FYI: It’s easier to get some XM4s to sell for bills and food than to steal a whole food shop.

      So, did you sell those for bills and food or did you use them?
