Waffle House Is Taking Heat For An 'Especially Alarming' Paycheck Policy

A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

There's a right wing seminar of economics that they invite and "educate" supreme Court justices on how economics works. Well their ideology of economics anyway. Don't recall if it was a one time thing back then or ongoing but holy cow.
You don't even need something so explicit - justices regularly rub elbows with billionaires and are pretty clearly influenced by the association.
We need something like Discworld's unseen university where they can just be academics locked away from public discourse and celebrity - being a Supreme Court Justice should be an obscure dead-end of a job that only appeals to the legally obsessed.
Anyone not familiar with this, NPR Planet Money has a great podcast about this.

Tldr: right wing economists teach judges why trickle down economics is good and poor people are stupid.
Yup that's where I learned about this. Thanks for the link.
