So, the more paper money that exists, the less it is actually worth?
Its the same reason they try to keep the birth rate and survival rate of boys and girls roughly equal, so the supply and demand stay in sync. In theory!

Diamonds also have the price they do because of advertising.

The Diamond-Invention by Edward-Jay-Epstein is a good read if you're interested.

Still no progress on getting my pee medicine. The guy in tech support actually accused me of being drug-seeking. For a diuretic!!! Yeah i sell these for a big profit on the corner near old folks homes.

It would be funny except that i am making myself sick with frustration. I dont need to get all these hormones and adrenalins and stuff all riled up. I shouldnt be crying over getting - pardon, NOT getting - a freaking prescription refill. Is the dr trying to blow me off?

On the refill chart, the med has a LOCK symbol, so you KNOW we are not getting past that!

God is testing me. Or Satan is!

Its just ridiculous, and it is triggering feelings of childhood helplessness in me, knowing i could not reason with my parents. They saw that as their greatest parenting strength.

ETA: EXCELSIOR!!! I just got a message from the drugstore! I am refilled!

You Americans are weird... I go to my pharmacy of choice with a handwritten document by my doc and get whatever the hell they have containing the thing he prescribed. In an original box, no weird putting the pills into an orange bottle.

Edit: and if you don't specify, they give you the generic version that's cheapest.

We use computers to SIMPLIFY things!

One lady tried to tell me there was "a problem with the app" - its not the app, its the nut behind the wheel!

Im sure no one will EVER confess what the real issue WAS, let alone who caused it. When i know EXACTLY what it was - somebody's FAT FINGERS!!!

I think the poison adrenalin is finally ebbing from my inflamed organs Thanks everybody for your support!

In Greece you can waltz into a pharmacy, give them the name of a med that would be prescription in the US, and get it. No doctor needed.

Keep in mind we have a lot of lawyers to employ.
