    Better to pay than fight tooth and nail for survival. Everything pays in one way or another.

    • Yeah it’s not really the paying part that is bad, in and of itself.

      It’s that there are people who defy the socially accepted rules, are greedy, are corrupt, or otherwise go against the herd for their own selfish gain. They warp and twist the rules when they have the power to do so to turn things intended to create equality into machines of oppression. And then they turn around and tell people it’s not them, but the group they are oppressing who is to blame… And for some reason, people believe it.
