It’s flabbergasting that you could pick just about any random American off the street and they would show infinitely more political willpower and courage than our entire cadre of alleged leaders and titans of business. We’re a nation occupied by a tiny upper class of cowards.

people hate hearing this but it's 100% true, creating a huge pay gap between political leaders, their staffs, and other elites is a recipe for corruption. of course the flip side of that is taxes on the rich should be jacked way the hell up
The Mayor of New York only makes $260k. I bet there are police that make more than that in NY with overtime.
We need to pay elected leaders more money and stop pretending it's some sort of calling. They're managing hundreds of billions of dollars in investments and millions of people's lives.

Has anyone studied the impact of spoiled past-date IPA shelfies on craft sales?
I know a cursed NYT Article That Shall Not Be Named got us all dogpiling on the "IPAs suck" argument lately, but wouldn't buying a shitty spoiled grocery store IPA leave an impression?
Is there data on this?
