Here was the article about it, it was about Epstein's sweetheart deal with Alexander Acosta, then it torpedoed Acosta's time as Labor Secretary when Epstein decided to keep Epsteining.

Still crazy how we're not near the end of Epstein's legacy. Did not see Bill Gates' insistence on hanging out with him leading to a breakup.

Me half-assed reading it in high school english: Boy, some people sure had it rough in the depression

Me reading it this year: This is a loving horror story that could happen to any of us at any time because we are all powerless against The Machine

It's was legit a terrifying read realizing it was 80 years later and still 100% on point.

Edit: also my teenage rear end was too dumb to realize large portions of it are Das Kapital for dummies. Which I really appreciate now.

That’s a very good point.

Also China is building 100 ICBM silos in their western desert. Guess that’s one way to do it (and I mean we do too, but nothing as remote as like Death Valley ICBMs…good name though).

At least McNamara had the self-awareness to realize his poo poo was poo poo later in life.

I’ve never been so furious at a movie as with Rumsfeld’s doc by The Fog of War guy.

I'd rather see us do something about HFCS, but I'd settle for that.

How about ending subsidies to corn and kill off high fructose corn syrup as a thing.

Of course.

Here we go again.
Ending corn subsidies would make beef more expensive at the table, since cheap feed corn is one of the things that makes meat so profitable even though it's wasteful as hell.
