            No really. I mean it. sharing is actually theft. dispersing resources evenly is wasteful. it’s inefficient. and sharing only with your ingroup creates cliques and class divides. ultimately it is sharing in all its forms which robs society of progress and long term prosperity. on the other hand, self interest drives innovation while trade leads to prosperity. self interest is the true driver of human progress.

            buy only paper books from the publisher. and only new books. not used. as the good book says; “Neither a borrower, nor a lender be.”

              This must be irony. I cannot be certain because you doubled down on it

                Oh, that stuff about “sharing is theft”? thats an exercise in doublespeak. my attempt to parody the institutions. …“it is sharing which robs society”… Mwuahaha!
