much of what we experience is not new, just new to us

Spanish makes this distinction. a brand new car 'es nuevo' but a used car that is new to me 'está nuevo.'

the inflationary consequences of central banking and the resulting cultural rot está nuevo

"It was natural that a people in the grip of raging inflation should look about for someone to blame. They picked upon other classes, other races, other political parties, other nations. In blaming the greed of tourists, or the peasants, or the wage demands of labour, or the selfishness of the industrialists and profiteers, or the sharpness of the Jews, or the speculators making fortunes in the money markets, they were in large measure still blaming not the disease but the symptoms."

—from 'When Money Dies: The Nightmare of Deficit Spending, Devaluation, and Hyperinflation in Weimar Germany' by Adam Fergusson
