| 96. I Rather Think Chairman Mao Was Onto Something |
|
When he sent his elite back to the rice paddies for re-education.
All we have to do is send anyone who never made a real thing with the sweat of his brow out to rusticate with a bunch of dull old implements, 4 acres and one animal of his choice. And all his extended family. See who survives, and if the masses want to film it as reality TV, so be it.
