TLDR: Hobo Johnson did a musical rendition of some select quotes from the article. If the article is too cumbersome to read, listen to the song. It gets a lot of the point across.

    Stood out to me for that reason, as well. Several other passages in there are like that, too, but that would have been too much to share. However, I did not read in its entirety. Sad that we cannot break out of our limitations, from what little I understand.

      Because they’re not limitations. They’re jail cell bars. It’s the classic, “the system is broken” vs, “working as intended”.

      He’s right: The rich do have a massive imbalance of influence, and they like to keep it that way. It’s limited on purpose.
