Olivia, "There should be penalties for outsourcing jobs to other countries."
The Esteemed, "But, Little Olivia, that would create inflation."
Olivia, "Aren't we doing that already?"
The Esteemed, "No, the increases you see for your goods and services are removed from the equation because they are too "volatile" and would effect the inflation rate negatively."
Olivia, "You mean the inflation rate would reflect the true nature of the beast and be much higher than the government numbers?"
The Esteemed, "No, Little Olivia. The inflation rate wouldn't be higher it would just reflect negatively on the current government."
Olivia, "Tell me about this borrowing we are doing. How are we ever going to pay down the debt?"
The Esteemed, "We are going to inflate it away."
Olivia, "So there is inflation then?"
The Esteemed, "No, Little Olivia there isn't. There's just no jobs."
Olivia, "Yes, I know there are no jobs in the States, and therefore the government cannot increase their revenues from the citizens or the corporations that have chosen to outsourse jobs and move their corporate headquarters overseas."
The Esteemed, "No Little Olivia, there are no jobs here in the United States because of the evil Republicans and Bush."
Olivia, "So Obama has stopped outsourcing and corporate welfare right?"
The Esteemed, "Don't be silly, there is no outsourcing or corporate welfare."
Olivia, "But you just said............"
The Esteemed, "Little Olivia, don't you and the entire class of greedy bastards that live above the poverty know that everyone else but you is responsible for your success. And all the greedy bastards like you are responsible for all the financial and social ills of the country. It's time you faced up to your duty and accepted the responsibility of being a productive citizen."
Olivia, "I accept my responsibility, but, how are all us greedy, consumer bastards going to pay for all shit that the outsourced companies are making if we don't have jobs?"
The Esteemed, "See, I told you it was you greedy bastards fault. I'm glad you have finally seen the light."
Class dismissed.
