Ah yeah man those fat-cat bloggers are what’s wrong with society

I mean the fact that he can sneak in a middle finger in an article he’s probably obligated to write without losing employment... you should take your anger out elsewhere man. The blogger is not your capitalist enemy, or whatever.

It’s going to be sweet next year when the supreme court decides that the FDA doesn’t have the power to actually take products off the market.
