Weekend Economists Salute the 99% September 26-28, 2014

[Demeter]

58. I have returned, more or less unscathed, from the Big House

where the Wolverines and the Gophers gnawed each other. I have seen high schools play better football. Oh, well...the Minnesota Gophers won and will take the Little Brown Jug back to Minneapolis.

Now, wouldn't this be better than war? If there's going to be pissing contests, isn't a violent sport like football sufficient?

Of course, the banksters would be reduced to selling team clothing and novelties, and $7 Cokes. And the MIC would be reduced to tapping into the strategy sessions and drone-photographing training, but I suspect they do that already. Maybe they could build protection against concussions....

It was a beautiful sunny day, so sunny that despite precautions, I felt heat stroked by the second half and had to retire to the nice cool ladies room to attain some sort of equilibrium. but after that the sun went down behind the skyboxes, and the breeze freshened.

And I don't have to do that again, for a year. Every time I do, we have a different season.
This year it was summer. Last year it rained cold rain, nearly snow.
