I am livid about this. What context was this printed in the WSJ? What the hell is happening here? Of all of the people who should know about monetary dynamics, you'd think these people would have their finger on the pulse. Over 200K is in the top one percent of Americans. Are you shitting me? 650K? Boo fucking hoo. Good god.
Yeah, this is pretty weak: I think syncretic tagged this appropriately. It's hard to believe this isn't parody.
I tagged it that, but I didn't come up with it. As far as I can tell, thenewgreen did months ago. I've seen posts from time to time with that tag, and I think it fits so perfectly some places.
I see what happened, I was riffing on this post by cliffelam. He started posting anything that was so ridiculous that it seemed like parody under #theonion and I mistakenly started #nottheonion, inspired by his tag.
