NPR is still calling it the Kennedy Center which is somewhat surprising.
Political considerstions aside, anyone would be nuts to book a gig at theKennedy Centernow.

So Move
Rich guys threaten tomovewhenever any state suggests raising taxes, and of course our numerous publications dedicated to presenting the views of rich guys type it up.
If you are rich it is trivial to spend 183 days in another state to establish residency. I don't think any state should care if these guys move, but the fact that they get loud and lobby against this stuff shows that, surprisingly, most of these guys don't want to move to Tallahassee.
California, specifically, is already a very high tax state and somehow they love it and can't leave. Weird.

The Excluded But Dominant View
For years we have been told that Wokenes shas taken over all of our powerful cultural institutions, especially The Liberal Media, and yet not a single newspaper has an opinion columnist who is even arguably the vessel through which the Woke Manifesto is expressed.
Instead you have very right wing conservatives, moderate conservatives, and some standard Democrats who themselves spend half their time arguing with mostly imaginary people to their left.
Here is the list of recent NYTopinion columns. Where is all this Woke I keep hearing about?
The NYT is especially bizarre because they in no way present the range of relevant political opinion in this country. They are not required to do that, but that is often the excuse used to justify the choices they do make.

PR For The Rich and Famous
Elon Musk has made plenty of confidently wrong predictions over the years. I will even grant him some credit and say that earlier he probably even believed some of them, though saying that he believed something isn't much different than saying Trump believed something. They are actually quite similar.

Defenders of "American" Civilization Have Never Encountered It
I think it is the case that lots of people believe that immigration began in 1990s because the past, for some, is nothing more than fake stories, but I don't know what do about people who look atMartin and Sinatraand think "Mayflower children."
