There is a difference between buying extra content for a game, and buying Items to give you a head start you could achieve by playing.

As games are for your own entertainment I am not implying one is better or worse than the other but it is different.

U.S.A is a socialist country and have always been a socialist country.

You pay taxes and those taxes and those taxes are spent on "the common good": roads, schools, military, police, firebrigades...

Healthcare is just one more ting on the list of what your taxes pay for

Yes, but only the actual original works, reprints are about worthless on a one by one basis. Of course as mass-production it is alot of money there.

Anyway, after 10 years most artist/writers makes little money from their works because they almost always have to sell the copyright to a publisher/record company to get them to produce and promote it

Not knowing the details on cotton the answer is maybe not.

For example your hair does not contain any DNA if it is cut off without the hair sack. Hair does not consist off cells but of a substance prodused by hair sack cells. Of course the hair can easyly be "contaminated" with dna from somewhere else on your body.

Skin on the other hand contains DNA as your topmost layer of skin is actually dead skin-cells.

So it is possible the fibers of cotton used for cotton produkts does not consist off plant cells but off a substance prodused by the cells

IMHO, if the game has a timer and you lose when it runs out then 30 seconds is long time to be stuck. But if it is a game with specific puzzles where when you have solved it once you know the solution and no timer, then spending 30 seconds thinking should be minimum for solving a level.
