i'm going to ask ben bernanke if i can spray popsicle sticks with gold paint and use then for money. don't laugh, if we don't take this fiscal cliff on someday they will be a prized medium of exchange. what i would like to see is discouraging the food stamp leeches by making their stamps eligible for basic commodity goods only. this might not be as convenient as throwing cheese taters in the micro, but they're unemployed and they have the leisure to make bread from flower and yeast.
