What if we ask the rich really nicely to help the poors?

So I asked him if he’d be willing to pay $10,000 to move up in line for a Covid-19 vaccination. He responded that he’d pay $100,000. His reasoning? He’d done well in the stock market this year and would be happy to both move up and help. He’d spent a career in uniform defending America against military threats. Defending Americans against a deadly disease didn’t seem much different. He could afford it and he’d do it.

Really though? Even reddit still has a ton of piracy subreddits, and as long as they don’t post links they seem to be fine.

Is it better to buy some stuff normally while lifting a few things, or just walk about? I’m concerned that if cameras catch you lifting something, if you pay with a card you could get caught.

When I have a new idea and want to test it, I’ll often call a specific family member and run it by him. Paraphrasing John F. Kennedy from a very different context, I do this “not because it is easy, but because it is hard.” In many respects, especially politically, this family member and I couldn’t be more different. I’m well to the left, he self-describes as “to the right of Genghis Kahn.” For me, he is the very definition of a hard sell.

Don’t worry y’all. He’s a leftist.
