It is the portrayal of the 1% in full control.
A very liberal show.

(2,931 posts)There is an extensively thought out theory connecting man made climate change to the whole winter vs summer theme in the show. Basically when men do something to throw nature out of balance, the long winters come, and you probably remember from season 1 what that means in their world.

A feiend used to caddy at Chicago Golf Club back in the day, where Ben Crenshaw is a national member. He said you would go to the range and there would be 3 or 4 other members with nicer swings, better ball striking. But once on the course with money on the table, it was not even close. Speith reminds me of Crenshaw.
Tour pros are that good.
