Hi Modulus
It depends does it not on what interpretation one puts on "cheap"? I read
it as a gloss for "obvious" or "not difficult" as in "Cheap shot". To me
the option of kissing the ass of the bourgeoisie is always the cheap option
as it guarantees commercial success.
The 1% can afford the sycophants. In fact they are probably amused by how
cheap as in not expensive the sychophants are.
