They wouldn't have to displace any 'tax cut recession" since the
phrase is utter nonsense. I know, I know, in the coming regime
of "free speech for the proletariat" a.k.a. collective ownership of
the means of information dissemination, that's all they'll ever talk
about: tax cut recessions, the labor theory of value, and the
advantages of the high-tax Jimmy Carter stagflation boom.

Maybe. But did you ever stop to think about the
origins of the word "to go postal." It's an implicit
indictment of public employee union thugs, ain't
it?

Oh, please. The media discusses economic issues all the
time. What you are complaining about is they aren't following
your formula for what should be said.
> Everyone needs to be aware of this.
Yeah, yeah. The real thing you are complaining about is that
we don't have 24 hours of Envy on the mass media. Instead
we have other lively virtues competing: lust, greed, sloth, gluttony,
pride, wrath, sneezy, and dopey.
If I were given my druthers about a utopia where the mass
media was just Lust 24/7 versus Envy 24/7, I'd go with Lust.
Where's the fun in Envy? I guess the fun part of Envy is
where you get to take your revenge on the object of your
envy. Envy is Greed merged with Resentment.
