The most pernicious part of the con is that by systematically dismantling pensions and forcing everyone into 401(k)s, they've ensured that we all have to root for the plutocrats. We're forced to watch our retirement funds, which m

Agreed on TWoWS. Kind of loved every scene in the movie, but actually strongly dislike the movie in full. I also think that despite what seems like an attempt to critique the destructive lifestyle, it does the opposite and glorifies it. Mos

Completely agree with everything you've written. I probably missed my chance to enjoy Three Days of the Condor by not watching it earlier in life because - to me - it doesn't hold up to viewing through a modern lens. The interplay
