Returning from a Muddled Power Point Display
-You can call it Socialistic Capitalism or reverse
the terms: It's still a mess!
-Oh? Did you prefer the old regime with its
utter corruption by the billionaires?
-In some ways. The more they preached competence
for all, the more incompetent they became.
-There was an art to it.
-More elbow room than now anyway. I can’t go to
any more dog and pony specials explicating
how we fell into this sorry state.
-Well, righty revolution beginning in the valley;
lefty in the mountains.
-I was always a mountain man. First thing is to
buy off most of the righties. Then exterminate
the maniacs.
-Some plan!
-Some sarcasm! I leave tomorrow. Keep collecting
my wages. We do so little here anyway,
I won't be missed.
-Payroll ghost?
-Try not to spend it all.
-Isn't that illegal?
-It will be under the new constitution.
Which is why I stopped two years later when
my friend, The Commandante, marched in
with his army to assume power.
