Trickle Them Down, But Not Out
The thing about smart people is that they should know better, but alas, intelligence is not the same as wisdom. Not only do the mistakes of experts too short on vision—when they are not corrected—have the potential to do great and far-reaching damage, but they also undermine public confidence in the very notion of expertise. This is particularly so when expertise is wielded in defence of the rich and powerful as a cudgel against those laid low. As an academic, this lack of faith in “so-called experts” is painful to see as it plays out in the spread of dis-/misinformation, conspiracy theories, and anti-intellectualism writ large. But it is also an understandable impulse given the catastrophic failure of an economic ideology pushed by certain economic experts. Supply-side economics has shaped a broken system for the last half-century and has arguably done more to undermine the fabric of the American Dream than any policy framework of the past century.

You're always lovely, Tiffany. 32 years ago was a eon ago, to me.
'Ancient 90's Moment' 🤩 Cool line. Do you remember those clothes you were wearing? When I see old pics of me, some of the clothes I miss, some I can't believe I wore, haha. Great entry, Tiffa!
I quite miss those ancient 90s moments, Tiffany! Lovely photo!
I can’t believe I just woke up and read “Ancient 90s moment”. Cruel! I feel utterly broken and decrepit now 😂 Joking aside this is one of the best haiku’s I’ve read and it should definitely get some recognition in the challenge. Picking up an old picture and feeling nostalgia for the past is such a powerful and relatable capture of how one moment can leave you feeling almost displaced. Also 90s styles were rad :)
You're so beautiful! And I love your haiku! 💝
Some well-wrought short pieces lately! Ah, 19. If only I could feel that young again without being equally stupid. Speaking strictly of myself, of course. I'm sure your mind was as bright as your smile!
Hottie Alert ⚠️ 📢 😍 🔥 ❤️❤️❤️
I like where you are going with this 90's poetry series , Tiffany! Keep it up. 🥰
Gotta love the 90s!
I was happy in the 90’s
This is so last century. Brilliant
"Ancient 90s moment" LOL You made me feel like an ancient dinosaur with just one line. :D Rather, just one word! :D
I was 4 years old 32 years ago hehehe. We still could have been friends I guess 🥰🥰🥰
Brings back memories, doesn't it?
