Prickly City by Scott Stantis for March 30, 2023

OK. I give. Who bailed him out?

“Life is beastly unfair” … Siegfried Farnon.

“because I didn’t have any money in the bank. I’m a coyote, for Pete’s sake!”

Sad but true.

Also unfair: Thousands of Pricklians loosing their jobs, homes, or small businesses through no fault of their own even if they had no accounts with the bank. All because the bankers thumbed their noses at the Mayor when he told them they were making bad choices. “Who are you to tell businesses how to grow the economy”, they said as they invested in swamp stocks and misallocated funds, “Less regulations” they demanded as they endangered everyone with bad financial planning. So, do you reward bad bankers who have access to more money? Or do you punish the Pricklians, but in the future regulate businesses to protect the community?

Republicans basically want to return to the boom & bust cycles of the 1800’s. Replete with gilded age robber barons.

My father used to say that “fair” is a four-letter word beginning with f that should never be used in polite society.

Whoever told you that life was fair, lied.

Truth is, lifes a beach, then you die

You want fair? Only humans can do that for you.
