- Exactly! Of course, thats only 50c per American, much less than we
- spent saving the S&L crooks. (I think we should collect all the
- directors of reckless thrifts, and sell tickets to their stonings. We
- could probably raise quite a lot of money toward bailing out the
- investors. Or maybe we could charge 50c to stick em with a pin, that
- way they would last a lot longer as a source of revenue.)
