He's funniest when he gets worked up about calamity... though I really like his picker lessons too. Carry on Bob.

I like it when he starts all these post and he gives all this history of what ever object hes looking at. I really dig that.

That social contract between the corporatists and the working class is no more.

Asset inflation and profit are the only driving forces in board rooms today.

The working class is being squeezed tighter and tighter while corporations rake in enormous windfalls.

The amazing part of all of it tho, is that the robber barons have been successful in diverting the attention of the masses away from their gluttony and placing the blame on the poorz subsisting on crumbs - begrudging people food stamps while turning a blind eye to the excesses of Wall St.

A truly incredible sleight of hand.

That's no slight of hand... and it's not just corps but a collusion right out in the open. The federal reserve included.

We simply aren't smart enough to stop the obvious... you included.
