NYC = Zaevodnikian Homestead

Time Square in NYC = Energy. This "Energy" I speak of is not the kind
that simply runs your electric can-opener, but one that runs life:
provides it, upholds it, and is illuminated by it with neon lights and
twinkling LEDs. Billboards surround you, tight and compact, as though
you are a foreigner, standing in their dining room, looking at THEM
like they are out of place, and them looking at you with a blank,
confused, but inviting and enticing stare. Freedom in such an
atmosphere is truly that - free. BECAUSE there are so many people
going about their business, you make no difference to them, even if
you are a heretic blaspheming the President, as long as you don't talk
smack about the enrapturing City of New York.

The Customer is Always Right, and Related Concepts

If an establishment exists to serve "the customer" and if this establishment ONLY exists because it holds and item or service that is wanted by "the customer", then it must also be true that the customer is always right, no matter how strange a request could be, for if the establishment fails to provide something that the customer wants, then there will be no buying, therefore no selling, erego no establishment.

This can also be said of school when comparing administrations to the students. If the school is established for students, then is it not the teachers and other representitives of the administration who only exist because of the students? Should it not be them (the students) who are most often asked their opinion?

It bothers me that these tend to be common inverses of things that exist for (and only because of) the [usually] subservient person.
