I mean beyond stating the plain obvious truth.

It doesn't have to be an accusation of distortion. Can also just be a reminder that every day reality is not what we read in the paper or see in movies.

...or the Daily Mail?

If both have negative trust, does that multiply to trustworthy?

And barely by the laws of physics.

I'd joke about Venn diagrams but I'm afraid.

Yeah, that's a definite little poke after releasing.

Since you only elect wealthy people, you do have that health care system for the relevant people. And fuck everyone else.

I can walk down to the local whisky shop here in northern Scotland and choose from various whiskies. But it's only an illusion of choice. Despite the romantic marketing and harkening back to the founding origins it's nothing but factory made mass produced goods now.

Is anything stopping you from making your own and selling it at 90% of the price? Other than the decade plus that it takes...

a) joy to you for spotting my spelling mistake.

Here in N. Italy I don't have a wide variety of Parmigiano, regardless of spelling, but a good variety of hard cheeses of both cows and sheeps milk. They don't claim to be from Reggia di Parma because that would be a lie. Beyond the local ones, there are the grana Padano and there is the Sardinian guy who has various ages of Peccorino Sardo. Can't remember if there is much Peccorino Romano around. They have lots of that down in Rome.

So... yes, there is lots of cheese around. Up here we don't get much of the small producer Parmigiano, which gets sold at the markets down in Emilia Romagna. Almost by definition, for me, much less you, to ever see a sliver of it, it has to be from a big producer. Or you can have a locally made grana and it might even be good. That producer is just going to have to build their own reputation and not freelode on someone else's.

There is a thriving craft cheese scene. I'll walk down to my local farmers market here in Northern Italy later and there are a handful of stalls selling various cheeses. If that isn't happening wherever you live, it's not bacause of the rules about Parmeggiano labeling.

Perhaps I'll also pick up a bottle of one if the "metodo classico" bubblies since the Champagne is way over priced. There is a nice wine-by-the-litre place on the way back.

Nobody needs to be stealing each other's labels.

General lawlessness.

Using it as an identifier isn't really a problem. Using at as credentials, being somehow able to impersonate someone just by reciting a not very secret identifier, that is mind-bogglingly stupid.
