    muricans just need to stop retail therapy and the erosion of the bill of rights may crawl to a halt. economy is the one true religion.

      retail therapy is cheaper in the short-term than actual therapy though, and for a country where over half the population lives paycheck to paycheck short-term cheap is all most anyone can think about

        sad but true. therapy will cost you $200/hr or more. it’s really a privilege for those that can afford it to lord over everyone else.

        very few retail items are that costly.

        retail therapy to escape the hellscape of late-stage capitalism is like attending an orgy to get over being SA’ed.
