Rich vs. Poor | Livable Wage, Payment vs. Donation, and Jeff Bezos

from Mountain Meditations · host Christopher Cole

Should we hate rich people? Should we frown upon the poor and tell them to work harder? Can we find a middle ground? Does Jeff Bezos deserve all of his millions, and if not then why? Here we respond to Steven Crowder's snarkiness, we talk about taxes and the government, what it's like to work retail/crummy jobs, and the eternal question about what a living wage really is.

The Habitat Gimlet On a remote mountain in Hawaii, there's a fake planet Mars. Six volunteers are secluded in an imitation Mars habitat where they will work as imitation astronauts for one very real year. The goal: to help NASA understand what life might be like on the red planet—and plan for the day when the dress rehearsals are over, and we blast off for real. Host Lynn Levy has been chronicling this experiment from the moment the crew set foot in their habitat, communicating with them through audio diaries that detail their discoveries, their frustrations, and their evolving and devolving relationships with each other. From those diaries, Gimlet Media has crafted an addictive serialized documentary: the true story of a fake planet.
