10. Good point! Total, wasteful, mind-boggling looting!
Your OP gave me another thought:

Reaganomics: "Trickle down."

Clintonomicis: "Trickle out."

Bushonomics: "Trickle up, with no down--and trickle out."

Obamanomics: What "trickle"?

All the booty's gone. Dry well. (Better go steal Venezuela's.) (Don't think they're not thinking about it.) Then, work hard, believe in change that you can believe in but can't see, pull yourself up by your bootstraps, and crawl and claw if you have to, get some of that great American workforce productivity going, pull together, reach across that aisle and kiss the hands that have been robbing you blind and killing your children, back to work, America!, tow that line, raise that mast, beat back that roiling sea, and then they'll be back to loot it all again, before you can say, "Di-di, di-di, di-Diebold"!
