Well... I'll stick to cold beer. But I respect the English ability to stomach just about anything.

Like a literal milkshake? Like she has a milkshake stand in front of her house?

Neat.

I'm trying to settle a bet.

When Kelis sings that her, "...milkshake brings all the boys to the yard...," what is she really referring to?

I say she's referring to her breasts. 🤷‍♂️

Follow me here. It fits, logically, in the same vein as the concept of chocolate milk arising from chocolate cows... milkshakes arise from shaking boobs, or cows or whatever.

Am I right?!?!?

I love them all. My favorite was the proof of work (VIII of Pentacles). You've really outdone yourself. Its been a pleasure to watch the work get done.

I can imagine a society where work is voluntary and the consequences of not working wouldn't equate to poor health, homelessness, etc.

A society that allows a basic home for anyone that doesn't destroy it maliciously.

Free food for everyone.

Free clothing and basic medicines.

The rub would be that the house is small and basic. Mediocre compared to what one could have via their earnings.

The food would be quality, but limited to types with abundant supply (dragon fruit in the US would be reserved for those who could afford it).

Clothes would be plain, but they would fit and be warm/cool as necessary. Nike would only be available for workers.

I see that point in your OP. It gets really wierd when you consider voluntary socialism organized around a free market... though not my cup of tea, it's possible to have a socialist society with a market more free than what the US had today.

Note: IMHO. a capitalist society with a truly free market is the standard by which individual freedom should be measured.

Capitalism doesn't require a free market (though capitalist economies would no doubt do better with a free market).

One does not require the other.

From AI:

"capitalism and the free market are closely intertwined, with the free market often serving as the primary mechanism for organizing economic activity in a capitalist system. However, the relationship is not one of perfect overlap, as capitalist economies can and do include various forms of government intervention to address social and economic challenges"
