It’s your quote of the day from How to Fix Everything in America Forever: The Plan to Keep America Awesome
The economy is a wild animal. When you put shackles on it, you break its spirit. I remember going to a zoo and seeing a majestic lion just lying there in its cage, a dead look in its eyes.

I’m cheating off of Glenn, of course, but it’s a great quote. It reminds me of another brilliant funny man who once said, “The system which depends upon the right man is a bad system.”
