    We also require food and water and shelter and healthcare to survive, that doesn’t justify their commodification for profit, if anything it’s the best and foremost reason for those resources to be free for all. Just like the need for an energy source doesn’t justify anything the oil companies have done, which includes making sure every alternative to their product nonviable, or at least significantly more expensive to buy (though not to make!) so that people continue to buy their product that they have known for decades is destroying the planet.

    The idea that they can’t be eliminated is one they have planted in your mind, not reality.
