That's self-interest, not self-actualization. Part of self-actualizing is realizing you aren't the center of the universe.

I think it's a deeper disillusionment with the economy. Anyone who isn't truly rich is coming to the conclusion that it's becoming increasingly hard to get ahead in the economy over the long term, and the measures they use for economic health are becoming increasingly divorced from this reality. Things getting mildly better for some people over the recent past don't offset people's economic realities.

It shouldn't be allowed for contracts of adhesion (take or leave it contracts for consumers). Mandatory binding arbitration should be limited to business to business negotiated contracts.

Isinglass is not used very much outside breweries trying to do really traditional British styles, because it's finicky and there are better and cheaper options. I'd say that the most common thing making beer non-vegan is adding adjuncts like lactose in milk stouts.
