This is where I think you are woefully deluding yourself. You are not exempt from the whole. Your part is not somehow different from the other parts. As I said before, 1+1+1+1+1....= whatever the total is. You cannot escape the math. You are not special; your participation matters just as much as the next person. Conversely, if no one participated, there would be no demand for it and it would cease to continue. Your "1" matters there just as much.
