Ferengi rule of acquisition number 35, exploitation starts at home. Yes, it's true, legal tender is way more important than family. And yes it is also more important than human life. After all, you can't sell life for very much. Family life is just a drag and a pesky obstacle that has always been in the way of profits. How can you make any money always having to constantly feed and spend time with your family and listen to a nagging, depressed wife, or bratty children. Then what happens when they get sick? You have to spend more profits on them until they get well again and when they get older and can't take care of themselves, you can't even trade them for precious gems or metals.

When profitable businesses want to dump nuclear waste somewhere, what happens? Somebodies stupid family gets in the way and stands in the way of profits. The only plus side to having a family is inheritance money when wealthy relatives die off. Or better yet, a luscious life insurance policy! Who needs love, family or friends? All they do is constantly whine about their problems and cost you perfectly good money that you could be spending on las Vegas hookers. Precious high quality, cheaply built chinese products and my paycheck is indeed the only thing in life that matters. Can knowledge or a college degree buy precious stones? Can love buy me a chipboard and vinyl 20,000 sq ft mansion and a hummer in the middle of nowhere with a 50 inch plasma screen to watch porn on? No, it cannot, and anyone who disagrees should be sold off to the Asian slave trade.

It doesn't just stop with family, oh no. We should have never abolished slavery. We have all these children in schools having fun when they could be put to work in coal mines making us profits, along with these women that do nothing but complain all day long. Us businessmen elites could then buy a yacht on the ocean and spend time bathing in gold plated bathtubs accompanied by nude playboy models giving us massages while they feed us grapes and cook and clean for us. After all, we are the ones who deserve that.

No, but seriously, the very idea that this needs to be debated on a public website gives you an idea of the kind of losers we have become. Losers that would even consider any of the above ideas. The kind of culture we have created in this country will go down in history as one of the most disgraceful ones that have ever existed throughout our short existence. All this is truly a sick mutation of what humanity was suppose to be.
