Greed.

Filed under: Uncategorized — Jim @ 3:12 pm

You can’t listen to a Wall Street “Occupier” without hearing the words “greed” or “greedy” being bleated with nauseating regularity: “greedy” bankers, “corporate greed,” “greedy” executives, blah, blah, blah.

I would like to see the following experiment.

Imagine loading up a helicopter with bushel baskets containing a thousand fifty-dollar bills, flying over the “Occupation” and dumping them on the crowd.

Wouldn’t it be great to shoot a video of all the “ungreed” that would ensue?

  1. It would be like the last scene from “The Magic Christian”.

  2. I think the second video where they found out the money was all fake & had been printed by the Obama administration would be much much more enjoyable to watch.

  3. So. as long as a few machetes were dropped along with the money – or is that too hard a test of their good intentions?

  5. But Jim, you have missed the clear definition they offer: “greed” is when YOU have something, not when they have a chance to get it. They are, of course, spiritually pure and our moral betters in every way.

    It’s in much the same vein as their definition of “racist”, which is of course an affliction that only conservatives can possess.
