This is where we’re at. We’ve become this Onion sketch. “America needs the money hole!” It’s funny, because it’s true. How pathetic. The hole will always be with us, and our leaders will always be pro-hole. At least we can laugh, amirite?
At another level, I really wish we did have a money hole, and the worst thing done with our taxed trillions was that it was burned. No wars, no insane entitlement programs, no corporate welfare. And if the Federal Reserve didn’t exist, the money hole would create deflation, increasing the value the money we still do possess. So, in one sense, I am pro hole, and anti-printing press.
”I love the money fires!”
I think about this classic Onion video way too much:
