I had a similar reaction. As luxury goods go, their quote of ~$30 per bottle natural wine isn’t all that expensive. But then I read:
> The trend is now in full swing worldwide, and in my area, you can order a “natty” at most good small bars and many larger establishments.
It’s not the item, it’s the culture around it. I understand the Australian predilection for shortening words but this makes my skin crawl. But responding to your statement:
> Many people also believe that capitalism inherently leads to wealth inequality unless efforts are taken to stop that.
Because there’s a lot of evidence to support that. I can grab you some references if you like.
- johnofthesea 5y agoI'm not even fan of term 'natural' and I produce some.
- Kon-Peki 5y agoWhen I was in college, a 'natty' referred to a far, far different drink. But then again, I did my undergrad at Flyover State U. On the other hand, I bet 80%+ of those folks own a house right now. https://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/29/653/ https://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/29/653/
- brimble 5y agoI'm pretty sure "natty" means Natural Light and/or Natural Ice at every college. Except maybe some of the rich-kid fallback private schools in the East that most people have never heard of. There, maybe not.

- brimble 5y agoGood point.
- teucris 5y agoI’ve been hearing the term “low intervention” recently… not sure if that’s better or worse.
