What I find obscene is what Victorians found obscene.
Why would I serve someone a bowl of turtle soup priced the same as my yearly wage?

The Value of that soup is worth it, to whoever paid it.
State of Mind.
Do you comprehend the OBSCENITY.
Yes.
Explain the question, or the purpose of it please. As in why you are even asking that.
Did my comment not make sense to you, causing you to assume that it was I that did not comprehend it?
Was it this: "The Value of that soup is worth it, to whoever paid it."? :)
If a year of my life is "worth" (the same as) a bowl of soup to you, why should I prepare it for you?
What if it took you a year to make that bowl of soup, and I had enough money to appreciate it, while making it worth your while?
If the soup was 'worth it' to me, for whatever reason, and I was 'willing' to pay for it, and you were 'willing' to create it, then where would be the issue?
The issue is when Theft enters the picture. I see no theft in that example of the soup. Someone made it, someone bought it. The 'WORTH' is SUBJECTIVE.
Imagine someone who spent 13 million dollars on a car.
Now imagine that same person owns 13 of these.
What kind of person do you imagine?
I imagine a psychopath.
Is that fair of me to assume?
How did someone acquire billions? Theft and Slavery.
Why not use our laws against him/her? Bribery
Why do we have politicians accepting bribes? VOTERS
Why don't our dirty politicians get arrested? SLAVES DON'T CARE
