They did a sketch once based on my work
I was flattered!
Hah. At first I thought this was some sort of satire but then I realised it was real.

Interesting analogy. But to make it a little more “real” – they should have had the printers pointing directly into the pockets of the wealthy asset owners.

What ever next? Universal Income?
