People genuinely think deeply-held morals and values can just be sold to the highest bidder like that. That's what our business leaders, politicians, and celebrities have taught people. It's depressing.

It'll be a while before we hit the next incentive, but I'm convinced we'll get there.

Every place that ignored them is fine but those that gave in are still struggling.
