adjective; see also Shred Equity; antonym Independent

Skiers and ski resorts that remain subservient to corporate interests, the board, the Parent Company, aka The Man. (They pretend they’re all about the snow, but they’re all about the Benjamins.)

RED Mountain made history in 2016 when it became the first for-profit resort in the freakin’ universe to offer real equity through internet crowdfunding.
