  2. Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.

Imagine if we just awarded it every year to the farmer who can grow the largest yield per acre or the manufacturer who built the best car.

none of these things are one man operations though, the farmer needed farmhands to spray the pesticides and collect the produce, and the car manufacturer needed several different engineers, many who would not be motivated to work if they didn't drink or beat their kids to ease the pain of their daily mistreatment at work

Sure. I'm just saying we should be getting some kind of real tangible benefit rather than some kind of bifurcated ponzi scheme.
