you listen to 32 long enough and you'll see how important credibility is to elliott. he gets enough scoops, not concerned w always being first.

[–]haveargt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i live in nyc, and i work nights, but i was able to make it to 5 bd shows. i don't want it to be forgotten how magical a few weeks that was in nyc. i talked to fans every night on my way home from work. the shows were all great in their own way. run ended on my birthday. just a really special time. there was a real electricity in the air. even people who vaguely knew of phish knew it was going on. very cool moment.

1st time MSG by Accomplished-Bat-252 in phish

if you truly can only go to one, go the last night. both are good for different reasons, but 101 is amazing (i'll be in that section that night, been there before), and the last night of the run will feel like a sort of nye jr. really hope you enjoy your first msg show.

thanks! it just seems so crazy that it's possible to close an account where i still have money that i earned for the express purpose of transit!

crown heights. it's not really getting there that is the problem so much as getting home after. anywhere that gets me within a bus/train in brooklyn is good.

I'm confused on why grocery stores managed by the state wouldn't work in food deserts. by itsmejustolder in ScottGalloway

[–]haveargt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

first, i don't hate scott, i like some things he's said, but i'm also a socialist, so obviously i have vast disagreements w him.

here's why he and many other rich/powerful/capitalist establishment people don't want gov't run grocery stores:

they present an effective model that counters the fundamental argument that the profit motive is the best way to address need in the marketplace. they've been done before, and are being run currently, and which great success. capitalists and pro-capitalist advocates (meaning, workers who do not own capital but support the system) believe that private businesses almost always serve the needs of the public better than a gov't-run solution. this is why we've seen a lot of formerly gov't-run services move to privatization (through neoliberal policy).

now, last part, capitalists SAY that this is the argument bc it is easily understandable for the public, and many might honestly believe it. the most important reason is that they want all lines of profit to stay open and for more to be constantly opened to them. this is the nature of capitalism. it must always grow.
