    Stop hating the corrupt politicians and corporate lobbyists! It's the government's lack of action that has prevented the average people from having a livable wage! Your anger is understood, and rightful, its just put in the wrong direction. Just because you are without doesn't mean that we have to be at your whim, lose our tax breaks, and never get any amendments to the system that could make it better for us.

    I know there's a name for this kind of logical fallacy, but I just can't remember it clearly. I need to read more books and play less games.

    The logical fallacy is in people trying to pretend that those that own fake houses in a video game are part of some sort of “elite”.

    This made my day, thanks.

    Really made it how ridiculous the multi hoarders are trying to justify their greedy behavior in a video game.
