PIE

Pie!! Current mood: discontent
Apple Pie Economics___Everyone seems to enjoy a good piece of pie. I know I do! With a little ice cream on the side. The make up of a good pie is this: A good base crust , a lot of good things mixed together for the center to support the upper crust and a good upper crust to top it off.Our society is made up of an upper crust of wealthy people and supposedly good leaders. ( are they the same people?) The filling is a laaaarrrggge group of good people who need to work hard and work together to support the upper crust. Then the bottom layer are the old folks who contributed to society in the past and can be termed as the base of society since this is where all things were initiated. They weren't as able as others and did not become the upper crust though they are made of the same stuff. All of there past sucess has trickled up to the top.The upper crust usually enhances the pie. A good crust contributes good taste to the whole pie as does the filling. Again, the filling supports the top. A bad crust soaks up the best part of the filling and gives nothing back.It leaks and the goods trickle out to the side and out of the pan,(country) It goes where it does who knows what? A whip cream top represents the politicians, full of air and usually they look good on TV.Forgive this effort, it is an insult to good pie but something made me do it.1HAIKUThe bailout of AIG was a huge insult to you and me.NJM
