I think we spend too much on K-12 education a.k.a. teachers' salaries. It's the only industry where you never see any productivity increases. ↗

The last really expensive trip we took was so uncomfortable. It's so lazy. I want somebody to give me a great $30 massage as opposed to a bad $265 massage. ↗
