people spending hundreds of dollars on Britney Spears concert is capitalism at work

2018-10-05 12:52:56 UTC  

Actually, that's one of the things people miss.

2018-10-05 12:52:59 UTC  

Okay, I take it back.

2018-10-05 12:53:03 UTC  

>moral
It's just shit taste

2018-10-05 12:53:04 UTC  

We spend more on entertainment than healthcare.

2018-10-05 12:53:05 UTC  

Phew.

2018-10-05 12:53:10 UTC  

But somehow healthcare is the problem.

2018-10-05 12:53:12 UTC  

Your mom is a powerful and strong womman. Stunning and brave.

2018-10-05 12:53:23 UTC  

Its the very definition of capitalism,

People work, put in labor, and get paid,

And then spend that money on what THEY wanna spend it on.

Free market at work

2018-10-05 12:53:30 UTC  

I am Canadian so I disagree with that assessment

2018-10-05 12:53:33 UTC  

Even though I think if you stopped someone in the street if Hollywood or the hospital was more important, almost all of them would prefer the hospital.

2018-10-05 12:53:38 UTC  

You saying scribbles mom is a liar?

2018-10-05 12:53:42 UTC  

Yes, but Canadians don't count.

2018-10-05 12:53:42 UTC  

Which assessment?

2018-10-05 12:53:42 UTC  

You can't talk about me mum like that either!

2018-10-05 12:53:57 UTC  

We keep you savages up north for a reason.

2018-10-05 12:53:59 UTC  

Spending more on entertainment than healthcarr

2018-10-05 12:54:17 UTC  

I was agreeing with scrib. People pouring stupid amounts of cash to watch Britany Spears is a moral failure.

2018-10-05 12:54:22 UTC  

US spends more on medical than we do iirc

2018-10-05 12:54:32 UTC  

Yes.

2018-10-05 12:54:36 UTC  

Per person?

2018-10-05 12:54:39 UTC  

How is it a moral failure?

2018-10-05 12:54:39 UTC  

But we still spend even more on entertainment.

2018-10-05 12:54:48 UTC  

Many people compare absolute numbers, which is very wrong.

2018-10-05 12:55:00 UTC  

But only one of these is under the gun for "costing too much"

2018-10-05 12:55:02 UTC  

You always have to compare per capita.

2018-10-05 12:55:09 UTC  

Right but Joe was saying "as a Canadian". We spend even less on medical

2018-10-05 12:55:19 UTC  

I spend more tax dollars proportioned toward health care and paying the cigarette tax for my mother in laws habbits than I do on entertainment.

2018-10-05 12:55:27 UTC  

Probably a proportional amount on entertainment. Concert tickets get fucking nuts

2018-10-05 12:55:30 UTC  

How is it a moral failure?

Its their money

2018-10-05 12:55:33 UTC  

Yes, but are Canadians really the same species? Should we compare them to humans?

2018-10-05 12:55:40 UTC  

It's not absolute down to the last person

2018-10-05 12:55:43 UTC  

I don't compare my vet to a medical doctor.

2018-10-05 12:55:49 UTC  

go fuck yourself

2018-10-05 12:55:50 UTC  

:)

2018-10-05 12:56:04 UTC  

It's a general assessment

2018-10-05 12:56:20 UTC  

Overall entertainment gets more cash than many much more important things

2018-10-05 12:56:29 UTC  

Bread and circuses, lad

2018-10-05 12:56:51 UTC  

Yeah. Alot of it is that you spend entertainment money in small amounts over time.

2018-10-05 12:56:57 UTC  

So people don't think about it.
