The Boston Bomber Has a Bad Day

Hey Almanac readers! We hope you enjoyed the special edition of our beloved column this week. The Almanac editors would like to opportunity to share some really exciting news: this section now has a podcast! (not at all related to our article published from a few weeks back about another mediocre white guy starting one) We’d love if you’d take a minute to sit back and enjoy 4 of UW-Madisons dullest students talk about random shit.

 Here's an excerpt from this weeks discussion on income inequality:

Ben: Speaking of wealth inequality and wealth redistribution, I saw this clip online somewhere and it was about a former, I believe he was the governor of Minnesota slash professional wrestler Jesse Ventura.

Nick: He rocks.

Ben: He was putting the idea forward, I think the quote was him going ‘oh, everybody’s always talking about a minimum wage, a minimum wage, a minimum wage.’ ‘But I say we put in a maximum wage, where if you can’t live off of $12 million a year,’ quote him, ‘maybe we should bring back capital punishment.’

Nick: I 100% agree with all of that, and I think 12 million might be a little bit too high of a figure, if we’re being honest, too. But no, that was beautifully said by Jesse.
