One of my close friends killed himself. I don't wish suicide on anyone.

I'm sure Doug Schifter's fallacies are obvious to us. He was committing the CBT cognitive distortions of "Personalization" and "magnification". He failed to recognize that his taxi job was an ill-gotten gain, gotten through lobbying, government control, and harming consumers.

Our species is built around the principle of adaptation. When the world changes, you must change with it. Or you die.
