Incidentally, I was delighted to reveal to Ralph when I was on his podcast last year that I first heard his name in the 1978 song “Fast Cars” by the punk band @Buzzcocks. I was amazed that he had never heard the song!

Ralph Nader is one of my heroes so I was thrilled to be on his summer reading list. Nader writes that What’s the Matter with Delaware? “unsparingly reveals the rogue state of Delaware as a deeply rooted corporate haven for license and lawlessness.” 🧵1/2
