In 2016, listening to and reading about the proposed economic “policies” of each of the two major American political parties is sickening and surreal. For me, the resulting sensation is not much different from the sensation I would experience if, having sprained my wrist, I’m obliged to choose between one of two physicians, the first of whom promises to cure me by sawing off my hand with a rusty blade while the other promises to cure me by boiling my hand in super-heated acid. And me, wishing only freedom from both quacks, forced to endure, without anesthesia, one or the other’s treatment – and me also expected to express my admiration and gratitude for the fact that I am free to vote for which lethal imbecile will lay his or her grimy paws on me.
