Pelosi Encourages Disruption

Rep. Nancy Pelosi is encouraging new grads to be disruptors:

Isn't that nice? The US is already spinning into chaos, and Ms. Nancy thinks the young should be even more disruptive.


Disruption followed by perestroika is a tool of the oligarchs, something most new grads fail to understand. In the recent past, disruptive technologies have made a few people megarich, but they also have destroyed the economy once enjoyed by the rest of us.


A moment later, out from the door of the farmhouse came a long file of pigs, all walking on their hind legs. Some did it better than others, one or two were even a trifle unsteady and looked as though they would have liked the support of a stick, but every one of them made her way right round the yard successfully. And finally there was a tremendous baying of dogs and a shrill crowing from the black cockerel, and out came Nancy herself, majestically upright, casting haughty glances from side to side, and with her dogs gambolling round her. 
She carried a whip in her trotter.
