Jon Stewart on the current state of things in the good ol' US of A:
“And so you saw the gilded age, man, that thing happened until the fucking bottom dropped out. And then it was a catastrophe, and you worry that only catastrophes are what wake people from these kinds of slumbers.”As I explained back in 2008, that's exactly what happens and yes you're remembering correctly it's called TITS UP:
We never seem to do anything as a country these days until shit goes absolutely tits up. We're patting ourselves on the back for getting rid of Bush, but we are, as usual, about four years behind. And we STILL almost elected his successor, were it not for the financial crisis....which, what do you know, nobody bothered to do anything about until shit went tits up. TITS UP - this seems to be our modus operandi now; if you want any change at all, you hafta wait for complete disaster.
