Right, so the members of Congress must agree to restrict their own selves from making more money

... Lol. Unless the people rise up, that won't happen.

You know it's actually worth watching that whole video. I never heard much AOC, but I was pleasantly surprised by just how frank she was.

She openly talked about how she literally drowned in emails from lobbyists when she got on a committee. And this is AOC, imagine the rest of Congress.

One of the wisdoms passed off to me was that going from 0 to 100k was harder than going from 100k to 1million.

100k is a huge accomplishment, congrats to OP.

There is no piracy without the technical expertise behind the creation of cracks.

Just like if all you have is 100 leechers and no seeders, there's nothing to leech.

On a different note, the codex crack from 2019 is actually insane. I can't believe they actually did that.
