Yeah. It's amazing what you can do when you use oil wealth for the people of a country rather than exclusively for private profit.

You should stop downvoting this guy.

Howie Carr really is a far-right Republican who hates unions.

Everyone in Boston knows that.

And everyone in Boston knows about the local gangs and where they are too.

And everyone in Boston knows Howie doesn't report on active local gangs. Just on retired old gangsters or anyone he can try to connect into a union or politician or sell in a book or to hollywood to make a buck.

He runs a right-wing talk radio program and is a columnist for the Herald (Boston version of the NY Post) for chrissakes.

He definitely hates unions, and he definitely hates Democrats, and he's definitely right-wing.

/r/rdcomm1 is not wrong. Downvoting him would be like downvoting someone who called Rush Limbaugh out on being partisan.

I think that the thing is that these look more like knick-knacks you'd sell at some knick-knack shop next to a yoga studio in some little liberal town, maybe alongside some wine glasses shaped like fish or something or some local artisan ceramic tea cups or something.

Like, I could see these selling, but not for use as a board game. More for use as a knick-knack lazy susan/chopping block/cheese tray.

In fact, your original idea of calling them "keepsakes" and selling them on a heavily pink cookbook website was far better than trying to market them as board games.

If I were you, I'd start calling up New England gift shops and unloading inventory on them. These look like mid-aged women-focused knick-knack impulse purchases for gift shops at seaside towns. Without a heavy discount, that's probably the best way I can think of for you to move these things. Otherwise, I'd say cut your losses and drop them on a discount retailer. The board game angle just isn't going to fly, I think.

Yeah. It's a car that the middle class might one day be able to afford if they work hard and save. Tesla on the other hand...
