5. The rollout is full of mixed messages?!?!?!?

The example you point out
is particularly interesting.

First how much would it cost
for a single mom to move to
a "better" school district?

First, last and security deposit
is a bug chunk of change...
unless she's buying a new home???
Moving costs alone could run over a grand.

Why is the school district so bad?
IS this more bashing of Public Education?
A sideways attack on teacher unions?
A nod to Charter Schools...privatize education?

Every character in the rollout has a
backstory that just doesn't comport
with the economic realities.

Notice the factory worker with his new career...
pouring buckets... Bwahaha? He must be proud?!?
But hey, 5 generations of the ownership class
are doing very well!

The narrative that Americans have somehow
"fought their way back from tough
economic times"
is just laughable.
Though it is great marketing...
