Your satire is agreeably good and well presented for sure. Though, like the government at large, Ben has surpassed the all too common stature of WTHIHD (What The Hell Is He Doing) to a loathed WTFTFFA (What The F***, This F*** Face Again?). Because of this unfortunate change, Ben can no longer be poked fun at like a mere annoying purple dinosaur. Oh no. Ben is clearly beyond that. Ben is now in the realm of “I need to use that stimulus package and rate cut to buy a WASR-10 and a bucket of 7.62’s.”

Being what I may (WTF Jr.), I have a side of levity. Maybe this could be viewed as an opportunity to evaluate how McDonald’s has successfully marketed crappy hamburgers for decades and in turn, apply this winning method of underachievement to continue humiliating Uncle Ben for another year… or two.

By the way, I’ve become a big fan of the Republican party and their market based solutions. I figure the SPX returns over the last 7 years tells us all we need to know about how well our government is running the show.
