Just watched this on Letterman ) "Guy goes into a bar, orders 12 shots of whiskey, barman lines them up, he starts drinking, drinks one after another, bang bang bang, comes to a dozen, barman gets worried, says -Slow down!! What you doingg?! -If you had what I have you would be doing the same too! -What, what you have? -Dollar" and another version of the same story by Chris rock, posted in 2008... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lrUs5pAWux0 Makes me feel sad we wont have George Carlin in this upcoming crisis, he would have explained it to the layman with the greatest of analogies...
Mr Carlin said it already; (paraphrasing) "They don't care about you; it's never gonna get any better, be happy with what you got."
