A similar thing happens at the company I just joined. It has a “move fast” culture. I push for new roles that are genuinely needed now. My boss “approves”, but finance puts the brakes on for review. HR doesn’t want me yelling at them, so they post the job to “get a jump on collecting resumes”.
If I lose the battle with finance, the job evaporates. If I win, we scoop up the resumes, and hire someone within a week.
Politics shift to the right when people feel disparity, and their future looks break. Politics shift left when people feel optimistic about their future.
You give the Dems too much credit. It’s easier to believe they’re weak and ineffectual.
I think you misread. He said “disguising”, which only means intent to keep hidden by masking the truth.
You’re correct in theory. However, in practice it’s likely to end up the same way publishing CEO salaries ended up leading to a constant rise in CEO salaries, rather than curtailing them, as intended.

I don’t disagree, but I definitely do not agree fully with your sentiment. “theft” implies a loss to the owner. (and sorry to folks in the other side, “piracy” also implies theft/loss)
So if folks can sit on top of a skyscraper and look into a ball park to watch the game, it’s not theft, but they are enjoying something of value without paying for it, and society generally accepts this behavior in that case. But not if you splice your neighbor’s cable to watch for free. (is that even still possible?)
Maybe call it, “involuntary gratis”? It implies some harm, but not on the same degree as theft.
Use more butter/oil than you normally would. Let the pan heat up properly before adding your egg. Don’t try to flip it until after it’s had a chance to cook a bit first. (just like you don’t try to flip a pancake too quickly)
Do those three things, no more eggs falling apart.
Saw the title, figured it couldn’t be that bad. Read the article. It is that bad.
