Ants and other bugs
-
The new version: Ants worked hard and some of them got lucky and evolved into termites, or CEOs. They exaggerate the profits of their companies and encourage other ants and grasshoppers to buy stocks, invest in 401k and IRA accounts. Then they take the money to give themselves big bonuses. They also make huge political donations to their representatives in the government, the republicans and the democrats. Life is good for those termites. When the economic bubble bursted, most of them already cashed in. Their buddies in the government continue to enjoy high approval ratings because the other ants and grasshoppers are too stupid. Moral of the story: Life sucks if you are not a termite

So become a termite - quit trying to save the world and save youself - quit depending on the government for anything - since the other ants and grasshoppers are so dumb you ought to be able to have a field day - remember the old saying "Good intentions and 2.50 will buy you cup of coffee at some Starbucks". Richard ( Who is trying like hell to become a termite ) When I reflect upon the number of disagreeable people who I know have gone to better world, I am moved to lead a different life.
