I mean, yes, this is very well-written and relevant and a wonderful allegory for other things that plague our society, but at some point, it's just exhausting. How The Rich Approach Alcohol becomes the same as How The Rich Approach Housing which is similar to How The Rich Approach Schooling and also How The Rich Approach Automobiles as well as How The Rich Approach Air Travel. It all gets conglomerated into one big These People Have Too Much Money clusterfuck that becomes this steady drumbeat of unfairness threatening to tenderize my brain into oblivion.
