To simplify, it would be nice if everyone got a universal provision for food, housing, and money, but they don't. Your argument is that "if we had these basic things, there's no reason not to have X game for free."

BUT, we don't yet have those things. That makes it not fair to just take it.

Thats really isn’t my argument though.

I am absolutely not saying people should pirate simply because of some ideal, before that ideal exists.

I have been saying that within the current system all people with enough means to live comfortably ought to pay a fair share to creators, as am i.

I am not sure why this mis communication persists i thought to have clarified it at least 3 times now that that is not what i meant.

Have a good (probably next) day now.
