i can't imagine many people would agree with how you're using the term "rational". short-term thinking is not an automatic outcome of rationality... you seem to be describing some of the negative effects of capitalism in

the site makes it pretty clear in multiple places that they're talking about "added" or "hallucinated" toxicity. maybe your culture war outrage is misplaced?

1. this is an editorialized title 2. it's "rationale" not "rational" 3. mercola is a garbage bag full of medical disinformation. this alone seems like a perfectly good reason to not provide them with banking service

national (US) average teacher salary this year is estimated to be $68,469. zero states have an average over $100k, though NY is in the high 90s. do you just happen to live in NY and know a lot of late-career teachers then?

This talk is... not great. Being a controversial contrarian isn't too helpful when you're mostly just wrong and misinformed. I commend him for at least linking to the responses of his critics, though I'm not sure he's ev
