This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

It's interesting that valid observations presented in the talk were followed by hard-core propaganda that brought us to this point. Yes, the older generations accumulated too much wealth but your answer is to make things worse for the less fortunate in THAT group?
