My observation is that issues requiring a true shake-up of those currently in power or strong financial holding (usually correlated) leads to actions being individualized. This includes: climate - shake up of industrial winners if new polic

Oh hm.. I have a pretty different view of the world we currently live in. That pizza? Not actually 10.99. That 120,000 paycheck, not actually 120,000. The list goes on.
