The latest Versus econoparody:
And since this is a Friday night, let me give you a couple of personal faves. This one from O Lucky Man! is similar philosophically but very different stylistically. This Lindsay Anderson film (with Malcolm McDowell) has the interesting device of treating the band as a Greek chorus. During the picture, it would cut away to the musicians (as shown), then back to the narrative:
Theme song:
Lyrics:
If you have a friend on whom you think you can rely
You are a lucky man!
If you’ve found the reason to live on and not to die
You are a lucky man!
Preachers and poets and scholars don’t know it,
Temples and statues and steeples won’t show it,
If you’ve got the secret just try not to blow it
Stay a lucky man!
If you’ve found the meaning of the truth in this old world
You are a lucky man!
If knowledge hangs around your neck like pearls instead of chains
You are a lucky man!
Takers and fakers and talkers won’t tell you.
Teachers and preachers will just buy and sell you.
When no one can tempt you with heaven or hell
You’ll be a lucky man!
You’d be better by far to be what you are if you are what you are
And that’s a lucky man!

Technically, the bankers are robbers and not just thieves since they use force (government backing, legal tender laws, the IRS, etc) to maintain their cartel.
BTW, an interesting debate between Ellen Brown and Gary North might take place on Max Kaiser soon. Should be interesting.
