And all of a sudden my brain said "flamey-o hotman"

I may be broken. LOL

Exactly. This is the level of understanding employed by those saying that the economy is doing well. It's a cynical tactic to paint it in a rosy light as the wage workers struggle.

Also, I've only been through 100 level econ classes and it's clear that the economic metrics in use are not particularly meaningful.

Exactly this. I'm sick of people saying "The Economy™" is doing so damn well. Never has it been clearer that there are many economies, 2 of which are the economy of the investor and the economy of the working class*. The absolute tone deafness of statements about "perception mismatch" only serves to illustrate the brutality of class conflict. It's not a misperception of reality, we're living in 2 different realities.

*Also the economy of the impoverished and the black market among others.

I'm just worried about how the Rs will turn this precedent upside down.

Only time will tell.

An attempt to be helpful. Nothing more. I'll try to avoid it here in the future.

Thanks for the heads up /sincere

I'm interested to see where the courts land on the enforcibility of the terms and conditions stipulated at time of purchase. Should be interesting. For example, the purchase of the media is no doubt framed as a type of ownership given that you "buy" the item but no doubt it stipulated that your usage of purchased content is contingent upon a vast array of terms and conditions agreed to at time of purchase.

That's just one place to get HQ music. It's not exactly what you're looking for, but it's part of the solution.

I got this on a whim too. Pretty neat.
