Credit crunch humour
Wednesday, October 22, 2008 3:41 PM
Gordon Brown, Alistair Darling and Peter Mandelson are flying to a world economic summit. Peter looks at Alistair and chuckles: 'You know, I could throw a £50 note out of the window right now and make one person very happy.' Alistair shrugs his shoulders and says: 'Well, I could throw five £10 notes out of the window and make five people very happy.' Gordon says: 'Of course, but I could throw ten £5 notes out of the window and make ten people very happy.' The pilot rolls his eyes, looks at all of them, and says: 'I could throw all of you out of the window and make the whole country happy.'

Altruism

Kansas farmer has something here. This is a new word to me but says a lot about current world times. My dictionary tells me ' regard for others as a principle of action " To me that means, think beyond yourself and do for man kind....... ..well with the failed banking system because of greed, high fuel costs because cartels can, tesco bullying, and the threat to future food supply because governments lack wisdom in provisional means, etc. We all know too well that business is not as pleasant as it could be, because it all boils down to making that extra buck . It should be more, moral satisfaction, a pleasure doing business (and I mean yeah that worked for both parties) and hell I love my job, less paper bloody work. What happened ....... Oh yea we got embroiled in a so called democratic system where by those in power supposedly help us to enrich ourselves, I read a book by George Orwell 1984, once and that sums up our democracy. Look at China and the Russian Oligarchs, they are all laughing at our dumb ass greedy, short sighted politicians and how we (UK) are now shaped or shipwrecked you might say. What's the answer, well I think it will naturally happen because the ultimate democracy is anarchy and hopefully from that we will realise as humans, that we should look after each other................
