Lucky for the people in those places, apparently America isn’t civilized enough. My point still stands though I think, most of us are relying on things outside of our control for a paycheck

I mean, aren’t we all putting our eggs into one basket with our jobs? Isn’t that what all of us are doing, relying on good words and will of our employers? Most of us work for a company that could decide to get rid of us on a whim. “At will” employment is a thing in some places where they can literally just decide to fire you if they want. Sure, it seems silly to make a living off a video game, but any company could just as easily make just as stupid of decisions.

Is your username a Slartybartfast reference?

There are also free ones, BUT they’re a lot harder to get into, and a lot of times don’t have as much content or aren’t managed as well. They do exist if you’re patient though, I managed to get into a pretty good one a while back.
