It is the trees, man, when everybody trims trees it is paper time out there.

Trees symbolizes economic action, the will of people to create wealth. Trees can over grow obscuring the view just like wealth sews the seeds of its own destruction, but the destructive can be constructive in order to eliminate the dross. If the dross were to accumulate too much, it would choke off the wealth creation process, so the wealth is trimmed. Everyone chooses inadvertently to reduce their wealth. They choose actions which they think are increasing wealth but which are actually decreasing wealth. At least the view to wealth renewal is restored in this process and the dross, the pile of paper representing false assets, falls away and rots on the ground providing nutrients to the pruned remnant. It is Schumpeter's cultivation.

Grab it while you can.

The author recommends that we sell our inflated assets because they're headed for the ash heap of history.

When the trees grow there ain’t no paper power anymore.

You gotta be mean and lean to grow again without the old foliage chewing up your precious bodily fluids, unless the destroyed remains of the previous growth putrefy to restore them.

So let's cheer for the MMs to take 'em down one more time!
