People Share Big Indicators That Someone is a Bad Person

People Discuss Jobs They Wouldn’t Do For $150K a Month
«Selling out» is a far less cogent cultural concept than it was during the 20th century. At least, that’s how it seems to someone who only knows about the discourse of the 20th century through films and TV. The 90s were stock full of movie characters who did not want to sell out their values …
