I'd show my ass in the food department of Lewis's department store in Manchester city center...again.

Destruction of industrialized society.
I'd force the population to reduce it's numbers by a tenth every 20 years, disperse from the cities, and live a lifestyle more in tune with the natural world. The majority of modern era technology will be abolished, medical attention and supplies will be given freely but only as needed. High technology enclaves will be crushed.
I'll force the human population down a golden path with or without their consent. Like a combination of Gurren Lagann and Dune.

I actually like some of the appeal of a certain Neo-Luddite way of life. Henry David Thoreau's Walden is one of my favorite books I've ever read.
I also plan on living off-grid at some point.
But, the caveat is that I will still have some electronic devices, including fancy, high-tech computer technology.
It'll all be run on solar power, though, and maybe a bit of hydroelectric energy.
You can be in touch with nature and still embrace technology.
It's not a mutually exclusive dichotomy.

I'd probably be doing the same things I do now. Is that sad? Or is that commendable? I might give people access to my unlimited resources, but nothing about my life would really change in the process. :/

Nah, pimp force is the means of acquiring pussy, which is the resource. You don't violate their free will if you coerce women the way it's done traditionally, that is, with great subtlety and manipulation. Basically, you're just telling them the rules their bodies have to play by and that's how they make you money. If you orient your business structure around pussy, you're not violating the rules, not even Kant's rules.

You can't be dishonest if you believe all truth is made up in the first place. Every time you tell a bitch she's worthless, it's a new truth integrated into her understanding. By controlling women and commodifying their bodies, you're manufacturing truths understood at a wholesale rate. A better assessment would be that pimps are the most honest examples of a deceptive race.
