if you care about this, find ways to make the "non-burning" options turn more of a profit.

If I make a profit, what do I spend it on?
I can't even think of things to buy, anymore. I don't know anyone who wants anything, at all, unless something they have is broken.
Bitcoin? food? land? I don't know - that's up to you.
it doesn't really make sense to me to both question profit as a motive for anything ("what would I spend it on?") but also say the profit motive is the problem ("they won't make art because burning is more profitable")
Why would I try to earn Bitcoin, in order to purchase Bitcoin?
