The problem with relying on bread and circuses to keep the populace pacified is you need to actually provide the circuses and lower the price of bread.
@davidaugust I've got too much circus on more displays than I can look at, while SnapChat & Youtube were the kid's bailiwick limited to an hour per day. I looked at TikTok back when it was a music writing/sharing when there were still fewer than 20K apps on Android Market.
Get this, though: my grocery bill is the same as it was then. That was 2012. Raspberries are still $3.89; the cheap bread is still $1.49.
GW raised my butter 600%---the dairy farmers bitched. You probably don't remember....
