Classic American Fable
Tony happily bang-
ing out hex nuts in
a department celebrating
birthdays with cakes
& kidding. New bosses
send his job to Asian
slaves, & beg him not
to fret in his overt Eye-
talian way! When the entire
economy inevitably explodes,
he'll have a tremendous-
ly better job! It does, after
a raw year or so, he gets
to dress in suit & tie
for less money. Along with
this illusion, morphs
into Republican, giv-
en to chance statements
like "Those people down
there don't wanna work!"
Anyone critical gets invited
to live in France, where they
savor multitudinous cheeses,
but won't eat shit.
