God, what a dystopian world we live in. So depressing and cruel. Heartbreaking read.

I'm not surprised that rich people care more about their bushes than human beings. Wish I was. I would love to not be so used to that level of heartlessness.

It’s not a free article, it’s pay-walled. :(

Huh, that's weird. It showed up on the side of another gift article I was reading, and was labeled as "more free articles" or something. Maybe that only works from within the NYT website?
