#1 (Instead of) a vain attempt to sustain an unsustainable system, something (else) will happen: Greek riots? Total societal collapse? Best to keep the jetpack fuelled and ready. If you can find somewhere to go.

#2 Steyn's in fine form here:

In economic terms, Im not sure you can even call this Keynesian, since John Maynard of that ilk would surely be surprised at the claims on the public purse in the name of stimulus: $71,623 of said stimulus went to pump monkeys in North Carolina full of cocaine Dont ask me why. Vital work, no doubt, and maybe even socially beneficial, in that every line of coke hoovered up some chimps schnozz is one less going up yours. Nonetheless, its not to be sneezed at. You pay peanuts, you get monkeys. But, for coke-fiend monkeys, you need the best part of 72 grand..

#3 $71,623 of said stimulus went to pump monkeys in North Carolina full of cocaine.

Are you certain this $71,623 didn't go to pump monkeys in Washington, DC full of cocaine?
