There is very little Combat! blog today, because I must fly from Los Angeles back to Montana. I live a life of extraordinary privilege—so much so that I feel compelled to reiterate that I do it on my own dime. Just getting born in the United States is a massive inheritance, though. While I live the high life, how about you enjoy this news from Oxfam, who warns us that the richest 1% of humans will control more than half the world’s wealth in 2016. Inequality is A) real and B) a thing that we do, not just something that happens. Remember that when you’re trying to decide which pre-packaged salad to eat on your layover. We’ll be back tomorrow with more self-righteous bull.
