how we can explain + + + align:start position:0% +we think about this how we can explain +this + + align:start position:0% +this + + + align:start position:0% +this +but basically the way that we explain + + align:start position:0% +but basically the way that we explain + + + align:start position:0% +but basically the way that we explain +this is that in the deprived state + + align:start

is to say in the future both people +will be satiated + + align:start position:0% +will be satiated + + + align:start position:0% +will be satiated +so what's happening here is that people + + align:start position:0% +so what's happening here is that people + + + align:start position:0% +so what's happening here is that people +when people are in the deprived state + + align:start

+uh it'll always be the case that people +have already received the first date + + align:start position:0% +have already received the first date + + + align:start position:0% +have already received

they will + + + align:start position:0% +so when they're in the future they will +always be satiated + + align:start position:0% +always be satiated + + + align:start position:0% +always be satiated
