I already have one but why it is not eternal.

Do not look for the ad is no longer available and the combi is in my wardrobe ....

I could have fallen, except that it was Swiss Germans not broke and the combi was in perfect condition and it was a Fusalp (see the price of Fusalp on the net) ....

In short super gear for who knows and in addition it suits me like a glove, it's a stroke of luck because it was intended for teenagers when they come to ski, so I'm keeping it : Mrgreen: .

We must distinguish between capitalism and the excesses of capitalism ... currently we are falling into excessive and inhuman capitalism! Which even dehumanizes us! If it were not the case, the Yellow Vests would not exist!

It is only when "technical" reasons or the resistance of the populations appear that capitalism moderates itself, to start afresh as soon as possible: the excess is structural to it.
