Sure sounds like allowing corporations to pillage the people and be subsidy queens has destroyed our quality of life. Its almost as if wealth is a pie chart of our resources, and not some isolated number that doesn’t effect anyone else.

Sure sounds like allowing corporations to pillage the people and be subsidy queens

I read that as “pillage the people and suberb queens.”

And I was like "uhhhhh, I don’t know NYC geography THAT well, but to call queens a suburb sounds wrong on every level…I can’t even think of an example to show how absurd that would be, because THIS would be the absurd example…

Then I re-read it.

I need to wake up…

subsidy queens

I read that as… "suberb queens.”

To be fair, the suburbs are a Ponzi scheme and suburban homeowners are, indeed, welfare queens. In fact, they are being subsidized by the very urban apartment dwellers they try to attach that label to!

Thanks Ronald Reagan.
