		hackuser on May 7, 2016 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Economist Removed from Plane for Algebra What happens to people who aren't in the social class of Ivy League professors? Do they get off as easily? Do their stories get told? (Is this event any more offensive or ridiculous because the victim is an Ivy League economist?) What would a U.S. President with fascistic tendencies do with this kind of power over people's liberty?
