We contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle. -- Winston Churchill

Kleptocracy -- Collect All Three

Posted by Jeff Dircksen - March 10, 2009



The cynical folks at Despair.com bring you three new t-shirts based on the new game sweeping the nation -- Kleptocracy.

In case the Community Cheat or Cheat cards in the pic above are too small to read at this resolution, here's what they say:

Your 'investment' in Congress paid off. Get out of Jail, Free.

You bilked widows & orphans with your ponzi scheme. You're under house arrest (in your $8M penthouse).

Taxpayers fell for your 'I'm too big to fail' crap. Collect $700,000,000,000.

Of course, this blog doesn't officially endorse products or beg for swag, but if you buy anything from Despair.com you might keep them off of a future bailout list. And, if the unkind folks at Despair.com were to read this post, I'm a medium.
