      Ban planned obsolescence, duh. Once upon a time things would last 10+ years if treated right and maintained as necessary.

      Now companies want you to throw away your things after a couple years and buy new shit.

      Just adding more to the landfills and junk piles, while milking the poor for every last penny…

      When did people forget that 72 inch televisions aren’t a necessity, they’re a luxury?

        They forgot that 72 inch TVs were a luxury when advertising and streaming companies paid to subsidize them, so we could purchase them at consumer level all for the low price of our privacy, AND our world! It’s not out of public reach if we just make it affordable for them the worst way possible!
