I got myself into trouble the other day, and I have my ears full of beautiful words from a handsome and entitled prince.
I’ve heard many things, but this one passed me in a Nigerian way. This young man, a college student, casually suggested on a train full of good people, “The government can print more money.” Yes, a college student didn’t remember his basic economic lessons in ninth grade.

^ James wants the government to print more money, pay him to watch Netflix all day, and get his meals delivered by an immigrant Uber driver.
^ Maria, a college student, wants her mom to FedEx her laundry back and forth from NY to MA. Way to go, Maria.
^ Kim wants her partner to be home at 6 pm for dinner and make more money for her never-ending fancy vacation.
^ Steve wants his spouse to be his brain at home 24/7, but his brain works at his powerful job. A job where he crisscrosses five continents.
^ Millionaires want hard-working people without health insurance to pay their legal bills with a weekly donation of $10. Okay, they are entitled, period.
^ Jena demands that billionaires share their bank accounts with her because she rents her brain to them for ten hours daily doing social media.
^ David forces his wife to make him a homemade meal every evening because he is the head of the household. He confesses hearing from his god.
