In my benevolent dictatorship the people will be forced to work in retail for exactly three years. It will be an Empire of Empathy and this policy will bring about that reality.

production of The Muppet Show should not be dependent on petty vulgarities like “ratings” or “revenue.” it should be preserved as a vital function of american culture. it should have a taxpayer-funded budget rivaling the CIA
