626. Ten Myths About the U.S. Tax System 1:03:55

2M ago1:03:55

1:03:55

3M ago44:28

44:28

It’s a powerful biological response that has preserved our species for millennia. But now it may be keeping us from pursuing strategies that would improve the environment, the economy, even our own health. So is it time to dial down our disgust reflex?
