I think they should still sell them but they should be $40 per sanger and have "best of walmart" type warning images stapled onto the plain paper bag.

Love the smell of cheap KPI attainment in the morning
That Lego could have been quickly converted into cash without much fuss. Not the most space efficient way to launder money but it makes a lot of financial sense.
An interesting read, but the solution of using our media to influence human behaviour into being pro-ecology ain't gonna work unless being sustainable is equally as profitable which it cannot be because sustainability is ultimately linked to less consumption of primary resources which is, contrarily, one of the biggest drivers for economic growth.
One thing the article highlights rightly is that all this focus on renewables should be secondary to humanity needing to simply consume less. It's a change we can make within a generation and would be far more impactful than any technological advances or deliberate population control.
Saddam takes Kuwait oil = AIRSTRIKES!!!
Genocide in Rwanda = no airstrikes
Genocide in Darfur = no airstrikes
Gadaffi threatens to renationalise oil = AIRSTRIKES!!!
Genocide in Burma = no airstrikes
Islamic State takes control of oil assets throughout Middle East = AIRSTRIKES!!! AIRSTRIKES!!! AIRSTRIKES!!!
Russia basically annexes Georgian territory = no airstrikes
China's cultural genocide of Uighurs = no airstrikes
Russia invades Ukraine = no airstrikes
Some rebels threaten the global economy = AIRSTRIKES!!!
In a large city they can be practically boycotted. Most people just can't be bothered.
For the best, even if not toxic the texture and will have gone to shit
Fear and prejudice transcends all education.
In Australia
Ryobi: for DIY, apprentices or otherwise cheapskates. No shame in it. Best bang for buck if you don't wear them out and the best part is you're not going to be worried that someone will nick off with them. A lot of their range isn't brushless and these tools will let you down the moment you need to do something moderately demanding.
Milwaukee: has won the trades tool war. They have a huge range of tools and their customer service with regard to warranty replacement can't be beat. Tradies are very comforted that know that they can abuse the crap out of their tool and not be out of pocket.
Makita: my house. I consider more of a gentlemans tool even though many swear they are the most rugged things out there. I think their batteries are better than the competition in terms of overall cycles so long as they are not abused. Their carpentry tools are so so buttery to use. Wish they had a bigger tool range.
Bosch: Not as good as the above two but priced the same or higher. Limited tool range. Batteries are really not amazing. Sad to see but the only persons using these are really those who insist on buying only a german/european branded product.
Dewalt: Yellow is not as good as red or teal and is priced accordingly. Weird second best niche. Batteries kind of trash imo.
Ozito/Ferrex/etc: Chinesium. Bit of a roll of the dice. Some stuff may last but generally expect these tools to fail at some point even with light usage. Generally not fun/comfortable to use either.
It's a safety thing as well. They're much less likely to get violently confronted in places like Ballarat.
That's way too basic to be a solution. If you take from them they'll simply take it back from us by cutting jobs and services while raising fees.
We should be making it harder if not outright illegal for them to arbitrarily cut costs in the way they do i.e closing branches, offboarding atms, making workers redundant to keep up profits. They are in many ways a public service and the service component is worth protecting.
Countering this behaviour would be far more impactful to Australians and the economy than just having them hand a bag of money to the government.
