...Fairness” has long been a coveted prize from the political grab bag of vacuous words. Conservatives invoke “fairness” when claiming that the top quintile of income earners already pays 66.6 percent of federal taxes. Liberals fire back that the Bush tax cuts—which gave the richest one percent of Americans an average rebate of $75,800, and middle-income families a mere $1,100—are grossly “unfair.” Each claim is no doubt true, but they appeal to two distinct, and incommensurable, conceptions...

The wealthier galleros show up in pickup trucks and SUVs, carrying their roosters in wooden travel cases. The poorer ones show up on bicycle or by bus, carrying their birds in a plastic bag.

Not only must she carry an absolutely shiteous, metallic tote bag to the beach while she and Paris are vacationing in Australia (just so she and Paris can have matching shiteous tote bags in almost neon shades of bronze), she must also content herself with the knowledge that no one really wants to take a picture of her. Paparazzi would rather have a picture...
