Yeah except Amazon did not ask A first

Aaaand ... that's the point being made. You're supposed to spot that B is a trap.

What point? That the trick question Amazon asked can be even trickier by asking another similar yet valid question beforehand?
The whole point of A is to 'trick' people into giving up before reaching B, which, again Amazon did NOT do.
A lot more people would get B right without it.

When you say a crash the banks engineered -- keep in mind this was silent consent of Millennial consumers to overpay for housing the past decade.

I'm on the older end of the millenial bracket and bought my first house this year. I don't see how the younger ones could have been buying houses for the last 10 years. Most millenials live in crappy apartments and make less than 50k. They can't afford houses now, let alone 10 years ago.

In fact, you can see at least one example where this is currently working: Cuba.

Clearly you have never been to Cuba?
Everyone is poor, but hey at least everyone is poor equally! (except for people in a position of power, as usual)
And don't you dare blame the US embargo for all theirs problems. Food being rationed and never being able to own your house is not something anyone aspires to. They're not even allowed to leave their country, because otherwise people would be leaving en masse.

What you’ve just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

That they are opportunities to learn and grow. Children certainly do not grow as individuals when they have every problem in life solved for them.

Ah yes, those infants with bone cancer surely are learning a lot about life before they die at the ripe age of 2. (But obviously they never grow.)
