Come on down!
Hey Uncle Sam! Come on down! You've been up there on McMansion Hill for 30 years, and it's not where you belong. You've been playing poker with the vultures, and they've been winning every game. Look at them circling!
Nothing is real up there. It's all wind and false fronts. It's all false values, false science, false theories, imaginary platitudes, imaginary money. It's all borrowed [carbon-neutral] smoke and quantum mirrors.
Down here in Homette Valley everything is modest, self-contained, paid up. Values (both kinds) are solid and real. Down here people improve the land and make things.
The trip down the fiscal cliff won't be easy. You'll get scratched and bruised, but gravity will help. Just let those tax cuts expire and let the Simpson-Bowles plan take effect.
Come on down here where the values and the prices are right!
