If one person has $200 billion worth of pleasure does that offset 100 million people with -$200 of pain?🗿
Hi; what you say is true. But sadly here in the UK Simon de Montfort set up parliament to have as it's only goal that of self serving and making sure that the People on UK Island only have enough to serve them. Sadly down the years they spread this stupidity all over the world.
