@BTC_JMS Neither judges nor politicians care about the law, so they make a mockery of it. In essence, taking the law in their own hands and punishing law abiding citizens rather than criminals.
The law is already a farce.
Your problem is going to be that the 1st was released in a vacuum. Now it's going to be 1 of 2 if other filmmakers don't try to copy your success.
You need to step up your game here, make the sequel a lot better than the original.
It's not the budget..., it's not more special effects...., just make the script and camera work better.
Low budgets can still work, you just need more planning and better execution.
Usury needs to be regulated, capped at 10% max for anything other than a home or car loan, which should be capped at 3%.
Shareholders need to stay off the corporate/business board. If they want to invest, then they should put their money in and watch it grow. If you don't like what the company is doing, take your money out.
These 2 things would cause an immediate economic windfall for short term, but would stabilize in the long run.
The White woman in Texas who stood up for herself after a pair of Muslim women antagonized her in a grocery store so they could record her reaction has been doxxed and fired and is now receiving hundreds of death threats.
It would be a shame if we raised her some money.
This would never work today.
Stock shareholders would prioritize screwing over the author, and even the printer, to maximize profits.
I'm not a communist, but these shareholders need to get the hell out of people's businesses. If you like how a business is run, then invest and fuck off. If you don't like it, pull your money out.
They don't need to be part of the board.
In 1884, Ulysses S. Grant was dying of throat cancer and was dead broke.
His money was wiped out by a swindler who stole his fortune.
Desperate to leave something for his wife, he agreed to write his Civil War memoirs and was close to signing a contract for a meager 10% royalty.
Mark Twain stepped in, called the deal robbery and offered Grant 70% of the profits through his own publishing company.
Grant raced death to finish the book, completing it just days before he died in July 1885.
It became one of the greatest memoirs ever written.
The royalties left his widow nearly half a million dollars, about $16 million today, and the book has never gone out of print.
@Laufey_son@TheCriticalDri2 It's a fact that many cultures are absolute garbage.
Best to send them back to their 3rd world shitholes.
They'll never assimilate.
@TheB8sment@ExxAlerts She loves strangers. My family takes her on car rides and visits to our neighbor.
In fact, I've known several Pits which were friendly belonging to friends of mine.
I have known one aggressive one though.
@Rattler87@ExxAlerts Never had one, have you?
Neither had I until about 2 months ago. Now I love these dogs and pit bulls are all I'm going to have from now on.
Almost got another one, but 3 dogs (all different breeds) is enough.
