Isaac Waisberg - sycophant of the bourgeoisie
For the past week I've been helping a family member move to a new domicile. Unfortunately, my current residence is also included in the move, so I have had to leach terminal time from charitable amigos. Anyways, a blog that I've always found amusing with interesting anecdotes is that of Isaac Waisberg, aka ibergus (it's Yiddish slang for "kiss the cook"). Below are a few neat-o posts by Waisbergesteinoskyilovich:
- Traffic Design - More roads does not solve congestion problems. Whodathunkit.
- An Economic Catastrophe - Seen the new movie showing LA being trounced by tornados? Check out similar exaggerations from an economist.
- God Hates Shrimp - Just like God Hates Mimes.
Thanks, Tim! Remember how we met? I posted (June 30, 2003) a link to Introduction to Market Anarchism by Joshua Holmes and you wrote that "in Anarchy, gangs will run up and down the street confiscating 30, 40 & 50% of your annual income!" He, he. I didn't know you then.
