Actually it was purely economical. Basic economic principals apply
because scarcity exists regardless of your type of economy. That is not a political
view, just a fact.

If I were to make a political point I would ask how can you determine what a "fair
price" (not just currency but time or labor depending on your economy)is for someone
else? Do you actually believe that there are people who are not greedy? Is being
greedy synonymous with being evil or non-charitable?

Words like "greed" are thrown around by people and politicians without understanding
what they actually entail. The term "fair price" is always thrown about but usually
not by a person who is involved in the transaction. But that is enough.

My apologies to the OP for aiding in the derailing of this thread, I won't post in
this topic again. On a side note I wonder how Assimil Russian is compared to the
other European languages?

(Emphasis added-RR)

I had written out a long response and was about to post it, but if you're unable to
respond to my response then I guess it would be unfair of me to post it, so if you want
to leave it we'll leave it.

B2 claim is overhyped. A low B1 is possible if you supplement it with other things like I
did.
