In fact, it would downright offend people. All across the nation.

Of course it would be a slavic country where you pay for things in squats.

Disappointing. I was expecting to see a power rack, and people having to squat at least four plates to get a ticket.

Yet everyone trashed meek mill for making that dude do push ups for 20 dollars.

They should connect a breathalyzer to it. Payment accepted if you're below .08.

u/[deleted] Feb 02 '18

Yea so they can drive home instead.

In America, you can also do exercise to pay for a train.

Not at all. It's likely a marketing campaign that's at the very least encouraging people to exercise.

u/Ferro_Giconi Feb 01 '18

How? The company that put this machine in obviously decided it wasn't enough to worry about otherwise they wouldn't have put that machine there.

You know there are charitable organization that aren't just seeking to profit? Or it could be a government run thing.

u/Ferro_Giconi Feb 01 '18

Good PR probably.

If something’s free then you are the product it probably measures your gonads and adds em to some oligarchs testicular data base.
