Derb — Gosh, you made a good point about the government being like Monkey, unable to do nothing.
Cleary, we need another $100 billion added, for programs encouraging meditation among government workers. Throw in another $50 billion for zoos, since that’s where the monkeys are. Not sure if Buddhist priests need the money, but add another $50 billion just in case.
[Me] I’m thinking of taking up meditation myself. Looking at my 401(K) portfolio, I’m already Aware of Emptiness.
