I used to feed 5 people for what it takes to feed 2 today.
[Nancy Pelosi flips her lid]
Was it a Botox lid with, like, brass hinges?
Were they able to see the microchip implant put there by Dr. Atticus Noyle? Was she eating tomatoes, Ramen noodles and reading romance novels (”The Manchurian Candidate” 2004)
I don’t know if she ought go sledding with just a piece of plastic between her brain and the snow (sorta “Christmas Vacation”)
She flipped her lid over this but probably rolled her eyes over Paul’s short-lived Grindr date while she was out of town.

The Election-Devaluation Cycle
from link: According to Nordhaus, in the year leading up to an election, governments are more inclined to pursue fiscal and monetary expansion. The idea is that accelerating output and employment growth will boost the incumbent’s popularity before the election, with the bill – in terms of debt troubles and inflation – coming due only after the vote.
But Nordhaus’s seminal paper also predicted a political foreign-exchange cycle. Emerging-market and developing economies, Nordhaus suggested, might seek to prop up the value of their currencies before an election, even if it means spending down their foreign-exchange reserves, only to undergo a devaluation soon after.
