I'm thinking the Army may have the Government beat. Back in the 70s I came across a monthly comic they published for their maintenance troops. I was told the reading levels were so poor the comic was a primary way to get procedures understood. Don't know about that, but at the time, I couldn't believe what I was reading. PS the Preventive Maintenance Monthly. The wiki link is a decent history, the Comic Vine link has covers and more background. Amazing stuff - especially in the 60s/70s.
A seemingly simple solution to a complex problem. Won't work. The emphasis is on people's well-being as consumers, not the well-being that comes from having a job and doing it well.
It's Forbes. It you're a regular you've already got the money for the first three and the article is written with that assumption. The 4th consideration deals with figuring out how to have fun spending all you've got left.
This was a Really. Big. Deal. Back then. It was all over the news and many of the adults in my life were really upset. And what I remember/thought is the Time Campbell's Put Marbles in Their Soup was like a marker for the beginning of deceptive advertising. Today I found out it was just Heinz with a hair across its butt. I don't even like their stupid ketchup. Delmonte! Which you can't get in Maine -sigh-
Amazing. I needed to know more - especially how this came to be. These ladies (and I use the term loosely) were/are quite famous across the pond. One of the first things I found was this: The Mitfords: Six sisters who captured the maelstrom I also found A Tale of Two Sisters: Jessica and Diana Mitford - A short documentary available on Netflix. To the queue it goes. Thanks.
