Economics, Praise Jesus

I have to thank George Will for today’s uplifting message. Praise Jesus! Thank you George for referencing the centuries that the free market has existed on Planet Earth. I always forget that Planet Earth is only a few thousand years old, and for most of its existence, the capitalist free market has ordered economic relationships on a global scale. But just when did the capitalist free market start up? Did it start up in the Garden of Eden, or in Egypt, or after the Exodus, or maybe Jesus was the first free marketeer?

Every week, nearly, I watch George Will on TV. Every week I watch, George Will makes outlandish comments that go totally unchallenged by the other dopes on the panel. Why does this go on? The only explanation I have come up with is that George Will never misses a show. So as a reward for perfect attendance, nobody gets to challenge George’s outlandish remarks, ever.

OK. Assuming the capitalist free market is centuries old, that must mean that it rumbled along sorting out this or that inefficiency, inequity, or irrational exuberance pretty much running perfectly from the Time of Christ until President Franklin Delano Roosevelt fucked up the free market back in the 1930s. Since the 1930s the free market has never operated quite right again because President Roosevelt fucked it up. Although, President Reagan almost fixed it. President Reagan would have fixed it too, except his wife is crazy, and, his boy is a sissy. Those two facts are all that kept President Reagan from restoring the Free Market to its ancient, former glory.

Why does this go on? Well, perhaps this goes on because what’s left of the Free Market assumes that viewers like me shall purchase the products advertised on the show. But they also know that I shall cease watching the show if George Will stops making ridiculous remarks that go totally unchallenged by the rest of the Bozos. Yes. They must know that George Will and his outlandish, unchallenged remarks are all that keep me watching, week after week.

Ha! What the Free Market does not know, because it’s been fucked in the head since Roosevelt, is that I never watch any of the commercials, ever. So the whole point, from the Free Market’s perspective, of providing me with George Will every Sunday, is a total inefficiency, inequity and irrational exuberance. Ha!
