$100/year is still pretty steep for me.
It makes a lot of sense, seeing as how Luc Besson probably grew up on that french aesthetic and those visual themes etc.
Hmm. Maybe you're right. But I still think art for art's sake is worth appreciating and supporting.
On the contrary, art has intrinsic value to those who experience it. Why commission public murals, Why commission public statues and sculptures, if art has no intrinsic value?
I mean, productivity in what sense? Artists can be considered productive with just one completed piece.
Why did the communists side with the fascists, in your opinion?
Princes can do whatever they want.
I really wish the United States would do something like that
Because you are actually the one deflecting blame.
Why did the communists side with the fascists against the liberals?
You can never destroy the Viking spirit!
It can’t be made in your own country for $7, because:
- Wages aren’t set artificially low in your country, due to currency values and exchange rates.
- The raw materials aren’t available in your country (would either need to be mined or imported)
- The factory to create the parts from the raw materials doesn’t exist in your country and will need to be designed, permitted, built, and workers will have to be hired and trained. And the wages for the designers, construction companies, engineering companies, and workers will all be higher than those in China.
- The factory to assemble the parts from the factory above doesn’t exist either. Same issue as above.
- All of the above will take at least a few years to accomplish, and the wages will still be higher than those in China.
Yeah, I want to support them just for that.
