Whole milk and cereal. PB&J and apples. Mountains and waves.

YIMBYism breaking through on imgur via negative partisanship, you love to see it.

Did Bernie really tweet/say this? I didn't think the "you won't hear about this in the corporate media" line was really his thing.

I wish more people thought this way. Love of country can mean love of the ideal we are working toward.

Lots of pro-Trump people are doing that, though.

I'm pretty sure this text comes from Prof. Mankiw's own course, for whatever that's worth.

Why this meme every day? It's so dumb! Companies save money if they don't pay commercial rent and employees pay for their own home offices!

Pro tip: You can just ignore anyone who uses the word 'psyop' seriously.

This applies to the regular rich, too. And the well-off. Anyone who makes over $147k, really.

Employers who allow WFH actually save $ in commercial rent, and their employees shoulder the cost of setting up their home office spaces.

I agree with Ms. Ioffe, and yet, maybe these people should stay in Russia and do whatever they can to change the situation from the inside.

And it's kind of an obvious Aslan-as-Jesus remark, right? In the beginning, the word was with God... that sort of thing?

Underappreciated point that the modern "Confederate Flag" gained popularity as a symbol of the KKK and the ANTI-civil rights movement.

That's so frustrating - it's so cheap in states where it's legal to grow!

100%. I totally agree. No student should think the Ivy League is out of reach for financial reasons.

Exactly. The Ivy League itself is very rich. Good for the students who get in, bad for those who land on the wrong side of this inequality.

No that's the thing, nowadays these schools are so rich they can afford to give incredibly good financial aid. No one graduates with debt.

The top colleges don't offer merit scholarships, only need-based financial aid. If you get in and you're not rich, you're on scholarship.

Same in New York.

If that's what he was saying, he should have said that. I agree with most of this post. But that line, as written, casts misplaced blame.

Don't blame "white feminism" for Reaganism and outsourcing/automation. That's a facile, counter-productive cheap-shot.
