There's a whole generation of women who never really heard the word investment before, when it came to fashion. They've been buying things because they were cheap. ↗

Capitalism is not about free competitive choices among people who are reasonably equal in their buying and selling of economic power, it is about concentrating capital, concentrating economic power in very few hands using that power to trash everyone who gets in their way. ↗
