    I wish I felt confident in that. But you can almost hear it right in this tweet. The mere suggestion of financial literacy is borderline offensive.

    It’s similar to how the notion of reducing your personal environmental impact is actively shit upon these days. Say anything about it and someone will shout you down about how corporations pollute more.

    It’s very similar: there are larger forces polluting the environment that make your personal behaviors insufficient to solve the problem.

    All true.

    But that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t do what you can personally.
