I read Rob Henderson’s piece on the “Hidden” Marriage Market on Sunday and immediately expected it would merit Jack’s discussion at some point this week.

I had come close to crystallizing a similar argument in my own mind without making the final leap.

What’s the greatest brand in the world? Apple? Google? Meta? Netflix? McDonald’s? Starbucks? Coca-Cola? Malboro? Nike? Rolex? Ferrari?

No, it’s Harvard. Parents with everything are willing to risk jail time, are openly ready, willing, and able to pay what amount to bribes to get their kids into Harvard (or similar).
