The Silver Lining

[Roy Rolling]

I saw a show on the financial channel this morning telling about all the hidden jewels that come with higher interest rates now that US treasuries are on the skid. In addition to that, the tax law passage brings to mind another bonanza---gates. Now, those living in gated communities can afford fancier gates to keep out the poor and middle class. Like the joke goes, if we keep shoveling through the shit, there's a pony in there somewhere.

1. They can buy expensive security to guard those gates too

Who says they don't create jobs?

2. And hired rent a cops and mercs

Lots of new jobs for them. And Prison guards, too! (they're kind of the same...)

3. I'm afraid the pony has died

and the shit just keeps getting piled higher.
