Man exploiting man

[weaktwos]

Work today was marginally productive. I did get in a good visit to the gym, which was much needed. Upon arrival to my humble domicile, I fed the little predators and flicked on HBO. "Down With Love" was on, starring Ewen McGregor and Renee Zellweiger. The movie was largely terrible if you try to take it seriously. Since I didn't, I was rather amused.

Ewen is still hot.

While that hummed in the background, I was surfing the Wikipedia, reading up on the Bernanke, the nominee for the Fed, on supply-side economics, and on John Kenneth Galbraith.

I came across this quote by Galbraith:

"Under capitalism, man exploits man. Under communism, it's just the opposite."

Hah! It makes me laugh heartily. Why, oh why, had I not heard this quote before?

That quote literally had me laugh out loud. Too funny. Good research is its own reward.
