Everything is about money, not about having an actual human experience.

Human experience is still there, everywhere. You have to make the effort to get out of your burrow and do things outside with physical people.

Human experience has been almost entirely privatized. If you're poor, you're denied most of it.

What do you mean by that? Go find a sport/hobby. Clubs aren't expensive at all.

Human experience isn't just hanging out with other people. It includes going to other places, experiencing what the world has to offer. You can't do much of that, if any, when you're living paycheck to paycheck like most people.

In social countries, they give you money for hobbies if you have low salaries.

Holy shit. One more little reason to hope the civil war comes quickly so I can flee as a refugee to a semi-civilized country.
