General, I get paid like that guy in Popeye Cartoons - in hamburgers.



The big mac index is my favorite economic indicator.

I haven't done a hard days labor in so long I have forgotten what it is like. Sitting on a computer clicking buttons back and forth is all it takes now for so many to accumulate green papers and pay the slaves to do the grunt work with it - just for the hope that one day that slave will accumulate enough green papers and get the next generation to be his slave while he clicks buttons - recursively iterate to infinity.

Didn't yiwuthemad say that the poor chinese even sit on the ground now waiting for higher wages so they can buy what they want - they no longer work just for fun and to occupy time. I was watching this special on this amateur gardener, he used to be the emporer of all the chinese - if only he had saved many shiny metal coins under his bed in the forbidden city - he would not have died a poor gardener eh? He could have paid you and trotsky golden pandas to fight off the winds of change eh? hehe Some things money just can't buy, even gold money - but for everything else there is mastercard.
