No, i don't do drugs anymore, either. but i'll tell you something about drugs. i used to do drugs, but i'll tell you something honestly about drugs, honestly, and i know it's not a very popular idea, you don't hear it very often anymore, but it is the truth: i had a great time doing drugs. sorry. never murdered anyone, never robbed anyone, never raped anyone, never beat anyone, never lost a job, a car, a house, a wife or kids, laughed my ass off, and went about my day.

It doesn't have the ability to think rationally this economic model. it thinks like a drug addict: 'where can i get my next fix?' it doesn't learn wisely. any kind of measure of natural wisdom would be: you make a mistake, you correct it the next time around. but a drug addict feels terrible... and then says: 'i want more'. unfortunately we have an economic model that thinks like a crack addict.
