I would really rather that these were actual examples, and not conspiracy theories. We all have our own unsubstantiated ideas about what shadowy no-gooders are doing, but I’d rather hear about things that are actually happening.

    Supply-side Jesus (short animation) is a brilliant take on trickle-down economics and circular arguments about why the successful are successful and the poor are poor.

    “Tax cuts will double our revenues and ensure that the empire never declines or falls!”

    “Should you feed the lepers, Supply side Jesus?”
    “No Thomas, that would just make them lazy.”
    “Then shouldn’t you at least heal them Supply Side Jesus?”
    “No James, leprosy is a matter of personal responsibility. If people knew I was healing the lepers there would be no incentive to avoid leprosy”
