Some More News observes rich people's behavior in a video you can access through 'the emboldened link(s)' below; but first I want to teach you about those words.

The word “Screw-Up” (a phrase that means Blunder or Mess, originally meaning "to Raise Rent-or-'Loan Payments' Exorbitantly) is built on #Screw, based on ancient words that mean "Nut, Cylindrical Socket" (based on uncertain foundations ... possibly words that mean Ditch, Trench; or Breeding Sow; or Defraud, Cheat; or Press Hard upon, Oppress).
