Lady M

I got laid off on Friday. Residential land development has slowed down. The Market has spoken, and she told me my labor is spent better elsewhere. I gotta love a girl who'll just tell you how it is.

Too bad for the Government employees I know. They'll never hear the truth from the Market. When she smiles at you, you know it's legit. It's not like that fake tight-lipped face the Government gives its people year after year. A public school teacher can walk across water and get the same love his lazy co-worker gets.

But the Market, she'll reward you. She is just, and when she frowns, at least you can be sure it's real. I hope I can please her in my next job.

My goodness... and here I thought American deification of neo-liberalism was just a myth... :)
