A lot of people treat "ignorant" as a trigger word, but I'd rather use "ignorant" than "stupid" (until proven otherwise). Ignorance is a lack of knowledge, but stupidity is an inability to learn (or an avoidance of learning). We are all ignorant about a great many things; ignorance is not a reflection on our intelligence.

Today, I'm unexpectedly reminded of how towering and fluent (and amazingly readable) this rant (in book form) is: https://web.archive.org/web/20051013072349/http://www.vanwensveen.nl/rants/microsoft/IhateMS_1.html - web-based bitrot means that's it's only available via archive.org, (thank goodness for their good work!).

The lower 90% of US income earners have lost $50 trillion to the 1% since the 1950, with the rate about $2.5 trillion/year right now. https://time.com/5888024/50-trillion-income-inequality-america/ If income inequality had been kept at post-WW2 levels in the US, every income earner would be getting an extra $1140/month... That's no joke. That sounds like a great opportunity for UBI funded by massive increases in top-level corporate & billionaire taxation.
