Kevin Hassett in 1850: The slaves are enjoying the nice sunny weather, fitness regime and three squares a day. We even allow the occasional conjugal visit when the master gets tired.

Sorry, Iâm with the treeâs. Theyâre worth far more than the jackwads that are cutting them down.
Thin the deplorable gene pool stat.
Like the Lorax we speak for the trees, but often the trees speak to us.

Although I changed my opinion of FLOTUS Barb Bush after her death; Anyone recall her cringeworthy âyou have it pretty goodâ to a Katrina refugee lying on a cot in the middle of a Houston stadium. Clueless I thought.
Then I read that she visited a hospital and held an AIDS baby in her arms without a second thought. The Reaganâs would not even acknowledge the disease.
RIP Barb.
Now this guy, on the other hand, can go f**k himself.

I did that in high school. Wasnât much fun at all. Especially the two times we got robbed.
Although I did get a laugh that time my friend blew up the clownâs head with a cherry bomb.

A âvacationâ from working. A âvacationâ from eating. A âvacationâ from having good credit. A âvacationâ from sleeping at night.

Especially those in KY so they can have a word with their senator who is refusing to do his job.

Also, many are very restricted in what jobs they can take to try to bring in some cash in the meantime. At least some â maybe all, I donât know â are forbidden by conflict-of-interest rules from taking outside jobs that are in the same field as their federal job. That would likely eliminate just about anything except something that was a minimum-wage job. And in any event, it would have to be something they could drop immediately if they were called back to work.

I grew up in NYS where our very informed Regents history teachers included the âbenefits of slaveryâ information just to show the class that this stuff existed at the time.

Says an âeconomistâ who has never heard of interest, late fees or opportunity costs. Any decent economist would get out the horsewhip.

Funny thing.
The #1 reason for revocation of security clearances is⌠Financial Problems.
Which can lead to people getting fired from their job if it requires one.
So weâre likely looking at Fed employees who havenât been getting a paycheck, and wonât be getting a paycheck in the future.
Wonder how Mr. Economist thinks THATâS better off.

This implies you are thinking âguillotineâ. Seems too good, somehow.
At that same time the Britainâs âBloody Codeâ had âburning at the stakeâ still on the books though, as well as being âhanged, drawn and quarteredâ.
Burning was reserved for women, but perhaps a milquetoast like this could be shoe-horned in.
Being âhanged, drawn and quarteredâ is not quite what it sounds like. âDrawingâ actually came first, it means being drawn along behind a mule, forcing you to walk shackled, so no cushy tumbrel rides for you! Hanging did not necessarily mean âhanged until deadâ men might be âhalf hangedâ before being cut down. But âquarteringâ means disemboweling the possibly still living body then cutting it into four pieces up as you might expect, though we do not have detailed descriptions of exactly how this was done, and may have varied over time.
CORRECTION: I made a mistake above (I left it as is). When being âdrawnâ you were behind a mule or horse, in chains, but you were not walking usually. You were being dragged on the ground, often while things were thrown at you.
We missed you, my snarky friend.
