Politics is downstream of Culture
(Andrew Breitbart)
Trust + Complexity can not compete with Trust alone
(John Carvallho)
Mountain resorts are microcosmic communities.
- Often many hours from a town or city
- High degree of TRUST between permanent community members
- Smart people, motivated by maximizing health and freedom
- Annual visitation exponentially higher than permanent population
- Most resorts are operated by Vail (NYSE:MTN) who pay staff close to minimum wage amid surging living costs.
