It do be like that

Power's in wallets that're fat

Where there's Art there's Heart
Here's a stupid thing: I adore art, but I start to panic whenever I step into a gallery. In the one place I should be at my contented best - surrounded by walls teeming with creative expression - I fall apart. What ought to be an enriching experience, tacitly designed to facilitate the exploration of human empathy and perspective, is for me an overwhelming purgatory of anxiety that compresses me to the point I cannot breathe. At the same time, I experience a sense of extraction, as though my head is being prized open to create a hole so big my sanity could evaporate. Somewhere between these two opposing forces of vice and vortex, I feel myself dissolving in a stream of panic that makes me want to cry; and I feel so daft feeling this way, that all I want to do is run for the hills.

We vote with our wallets all the time, especially when politicians say they will save you money or tax you more.
Congratulations on Top story
Fair points made... But let's make a trade: No choice to choose. We all soon lose the freedoms we have betrayed. (needs work, but I think I cannot use this)
