Wait until you hear about this new thing called: one set of rules for rich people & their companies, one set of rules for poor people


Police said the driver was operating the vehicle erratically; running red lights, weaving through traffic, and hitting speeds around 90 km/h in the downtown core.

It might have been the noise nuisance at 1am that started this, but it was the dangerous driving that led to the arrest.

I’ve no love for the police as an institution, but surely someone being obnoxiously loud when people are trying to sleep and then endangering others with their driving is not a hero either



In case anyone actually wants to know a couple of reasons

A) It’s not fair that some people pay and some don’t. (Of course it’s also not fair that some can afford $70 on a video game and some struggle to buy food)

B) If everyone would pay then we’d all only have to pay $50 each, lowering the price for those that are paying $70 at the moment. (Whether developers would lower prices or just make more money is another question)



Actually true though, in roughly half of all cases. More if you count cloud cover as not being blue
