Jabber-Whacky Or
On Dreaming, After Falling Asleep Watching TV
'Twas Brillo, and the G.E. Stoves,
Did Procter-Gamble in the Glade;
All Pillsbury were the Taystee loaves
And in a Minute Maid.
"Beware the Station-Break, my son,
The voice that lulls, the ads that vex!
Beware the Doctors Claim, and shun
That horror called Brand-X!"
He took his Q-Tip'd swab in hand;
Long time the Tension Headache fought--
So Dristan he by a Mercury,
And Bayer-break'd in thought.
And as in Bufferin Gulf he stood
The Station-Break, with Rise of Tame,
Came Wisking through the Pride-hazed wood,
And Creme-Rinsed as it came!
Buy one! Buy two! We're almost through!
The Q-Tip'd Dash went Spic and Span!
He Tide Air-Wick, and with Bisquick
Went Aero-Waxing Ban.
"And hast thou Dreft the Station-Break?
Ajax the Breck, Excedrin boy!
Oh, Fab wash day, Cashmere Bouquet!"
He Handi-Wrapped in Joy.
'Twas Brillo, and the G.E. Stoves
Did Procter-Gamble in the Glade;
All Pillsbury were the Taystee loaves,
And in a Minute Maid.

What IS Bubble UP Economics?
How Does it Work? Simply LOWER Taxes on 99% of Americans and ACTUALLY COLLECT Taxes on the Top 1%... The Total Will Remain the Same! We The People Will Spend that Extra Money in Our Paychecks and it will BUBBLE UP! Throughout The Entire Economy.
Then Raise the Minimum Wage to Fifteen Dollars an Hour and Raise all Social Security Checks 15%. All Those people will spend the extra money at American Businesses. Increasing Profits. Making Stockholders Happy! Then those businesses will have to hire more people to handle the extra Customers. Decreasing Unemployment Insurance Payments. Everybody WINS! With EMPLOYMENT AT A JOB becoming a Viable Alternative to Selling Drugs for a Street Gang, Some teenagers will choose Employment... Reducing CRIME... Reducing Costs for Prisons... Reducing Costs for Law Enforcement... People will buy more food for their Children. Causing Better Health and Smarter Kids... Starvation is Not Good for Children's Brains... Farmers will sell More. Truckers will move more merchandise to stores. Increased Competition for Workers will cause Everybody's Wages to Go Up. All those Workers will pay more in Income Taxes... That would make the Government happy... Right NOW, we are having a National Debt Ceiling Crisis because the Government is Spending More that it Takes in with Taxes... Bubble UP Economics would reverse that trend... The Money Bubbles UP Through Every Layer of Society... With a rising tide, every boat floats! We Tried Ronald Reagan's "Voodoo" Economics and It Has Failed... "People" Say That Bubble UP! Economics WILL MAKE Employers LAY OFF Workers... However... Employers HAVE ALREADY LAID OFF EVERYONE THEY POSSIBLY CAN... Have you Ever Seen a Business where People Work There but Have Nothing To DO? Never!
Who Could Possibly be Opposed to the JOY of Bubble UP! Economics? Well, there are people in this world that have COMPULSIVE HOARDING OF MONEY SYNDROME. It's a Mental Health Disease just Like The Crazy Cat Lady..
and then KQ Replied...
I’d go along with this scenario except that it avoids one glaring problem that blows it clean out of the water: Excessive Human Populations!
Clean, potable water on much of the planet is gone. Soils are being depleted and poisoned Earth wide, due to the growing need of agriculture/ continuous tillage,( wrong headed) artificial fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides and other ‘cides’ making it less productive and then valueless even for animals. In all livable areas, the need of more and more housing and the huge profit that motivates farmers to sell their land to housing developers is insane. The more human s there are to use and manipulate, the more greedy power hungry bastards move things to benefit the 1%. Infrastructures are crumbling while more are continuously growing, taking up more and more land. Economies are failing under the weight of it all, yet their populations keep growing. Where populations have gone down, politicians give incentives to get people to Breed more! Human are nothing but commodities in the big picture, for the greedy super rich.
The elephant in the room is humanity. But arrogant, self-centered, and ignorant humans will not admit, .accept or take on that fact or the challenge.
and I Replied:
Valid Point... What is the SOLUTION to Overpopulation? Is there any Plan to actually FIX this Dystopian Nightmare Scenario?
