No. It really isn't. This is a luxury service. If you use it to redistribute uneaten food in-masse, sure. But let's be honest, these services are for those who can afford laziness when it comes to walking outside their door (in a

That's a gross over-simplification of wealth accrual. Hyper-concentration of wealth will most certainly prevent new entrants from entering the coveted class of the 1500 worldwide billionaires. Regardless of desires to be wealthy, inequ

We've also gained mandatory arbitration and at-will employment; let's not get ahead of ourselves. Not to mention most knowledge-workers work more than 40 hours a week with no hope of overtime. Of course, at least in America, we wo

While I agree, knowledge workers shouldn't have to work 40 hours a week (due to simple cost-benefit of their true output), it just isn't the observed reality in most knowledge-work industries (at least in America). I wouldn't

typically these massive corporate incentives are just a part of the corporatist strategy of pitting all American cities against each other in order to get a company to set up shop there (look no further than Amazon's scheme from this s

Lapham's quarterly is an absolute amazing publication. Stumbled across the Religion volume in the sprituality section of my local thrift store three weeks ago. Truly one of the more important publications I've been exposed to in a

Very important citizen smarts here. Never. Period. It isn't unpatriotic, or anti-blue. It is really in your best interest to do so.
