Rigged

Reading time: 4 – 6 minutes

If you were a business owner where would you like your products? Probably in the living room or across the street from your customers. In fact if you were really about your chips you would deliver it to their door like the newspaper in the morning. Isn’t that convenient that you only have to go around the corner to make all your purchases? Isn’t it convenient that you can order movies through your DVR? Isn’t it great that supermarkets are starting to deliver to your house and accept the online coupons? Isn’t it great isn’t it?

Sure it is and all the business people would like to thank you. You the Customer for planning your whole life around what you are going to buy today. You the Customer for deciding how you are going to be entertained today by walking around the mall shopping and eating yogurt. You the customer for expressing your individuality by buying the same shirt that 100 other suckers bought but you think makes you YOU! You the customer for deciding where you are going to buy a house by saying you are close to the mall, close to Whole Foods and close to the entertainment. In fact the whole world thanks you for embracing the life of a customer.

The great majority of people base their life off what they are going to do with all this extra money in their pocket. Even if they don’t have all that money they are Customers in training window shopping and buying knockoffs. I know you are saying FreeMan what do you want us to do walk in the forrest and recycle cans? Nope I just want you to think about how the majority of your life is set up for you to be a Customer and then I want you to realize that you have to stop that kind of thinking if you want to be a Owner. You have to realize the depth of the game in order to play it and then you have to implement your own in order to master it. You have to analyze the way the maze has been set up and how all the mice are running all over the place trying to find the cheese. You have to stand up on your own two look around and stop eating at the trough with the other pigs.

Isn’t it funny that all the people who say they are artists all shop at the same thrift store and keep finding the same 70′s jackets and torn jeans even though it’s 40 years from the 70′s and those jeans should be dead and worn out? Isn’t it funny that Dave and Busters created a grown man Chuck E Cheese  where people go to have fun even though they are engaging in the same acts as their kids with that wooden ball bowling game? Isn’t it funny that everyone you knows has granite countertops and hard wood floors in their house and all say they need space to entertain like you are visiting the Mayor’s mansion? Isn’t it funny that all the cats who want to be DJ’s wear the same headphones, own the same beat machines and all want to be like the same music producer? Isn’t it funny that all of your friends want to party at the same place and drink the same drink and wear the same shirt damn near recreating a music video? Yeah it’s funny and the businessman is laughing all the way to the bank and back and then all the way to bank again as you keep doing the same thing.

The game is rigged all the way around to make you a Customer. For you to wake up in the morning and go to a awful job and then celebrate your slave wages by entertaining yourself with the same bottle of alcohol, listening to the same music played 100 times on the radio and after reading all those recommendations on Yelp! I’m not jumping on you for falling for it and I’m not telling you to stop doing it but you have to recognize the pattern if you want to be rich off of it. The game got millions of people buying Apps aka toilet bowl games on their phones to be cool while at the same time making grown ass men play with themselves in public.

Like a pair of loaded dice they weighted them and set the scenario up when you play this game but since you see everyone else rolling 7 and 11′s you think “Fvck you FreeMan I’m winning”.
