At least, not within the current constitutional framework. Certainly some people would argue we should institute nazi germany or the monarchy or an anarchist non-state and just ignore the constitution.

One option. But i think not a very likely one in the next few decades

@UOC I AM NOT SURE THAT POLICY PAPERS WILL WORK, GIVEN THE LOW TRUST IN INSTITUTIONS

BUT IT IS AN INTERESTING IDEA

I think it's just something that needs to be there. It's not the motivating force or the main driver or anything. But at some point somebody is going to have to pass a law with specific policy positions.

unless there's a real revolution obviously

it's the boring part, except for spergs like me who like it

I'm in now

woo, sent all of my quote requests

congrats

hopefully spergs reply quickly

gonna be f5f5f5 on these supplier sites for the next few days

I'd say I'm probably a 6.0 on the sperg richter scale

but I come across as like a <4.0 due to my consistent attempts to understand and eliminate my neuroticism

a sperg with insight isn't a sperg

absent insight is defining

now having spergs design my business logo

hired designer

I still can't believe how fast this is cooking along

it seems like just a minute ago we were searching for products, now we are contacting manufacturers and getting branded

@diversity_is_racism that returns thing is not that big of a hurdle honestly

it just means that when you have 10 products, start cutting the ones that have high return rates

I predict it will actually make cheaper products more favorable as there is a psychological hurdle to returning them

people will rush to return their plasma screen TV if it's broken, but not their $10 bottle of multivitamins

one school of thought is to intentionally sell cheap items because they are "impulse buy" prices and never returned, I am inclined to agree with it

usually what works best in life are the most pessimistic, cynical ideas dressed up in bulletproof marketing and smiling faces

purely curiosity and feel free to not answer, but do you have an estimate for your total buy-in cost and your projected monthly profit?

yes

buy in cost should be... up front about 3-5k depending in what order I buy tools, and another 3-5k in inventory

should break even in the first quarter

from that point I expect enough money rolling in that I honestly don't have to worry about being a doctor, just from the first two

on the order of 200-400k predicted, split between two people

and then we are going to add products as fast as we humanly can
