PIZZA ECONOMICS Human need=food=tools to make food=place to make food ham, beef- raise appropriate livestock, kill, slice it up, grind it down. pepperoni-tablespoon of mustard seeds in a bowl, tablespoon of garlic salt, tablespoon of black pepper, 3 tablespoons of quick cure, 2 teaspoons of cayenne pepper, 5 pounds of ground beef into a pan, add your secret seasonings, 1/4 pound of casings (intestines)...pork sausage, Italian sausage made in similar fashion. red onions, green peppers, black olives- plant appropriate seeds, cultivate, harvest. mushrooms- spores- The keys to growing mushrooms at home are establishing the right growing conditions and acquiring or making mushroom spawn, which is the material used to propagate mushrooms. Flour, sauces, etc...youre tracking now... Transport ingredients to kitchen and prepare product. Means of Communication- CONsumer contacts producer for delivery of desired product. product is delivered to CONsumer in appropriately designed marketing container. CONsumer trades numbers and/or paper for product and consumes it. Container and marketing trash is discarded. wash, rinse, repeat. Think of all the effort of the people it took to deliver a single pizza and the wages that were paid to make it happen. All you had to do was pick up the damn phone. The wheels on the bus go round and round. The rest of the story: CONsumer is given a credit card by banker to pay for product with no way of paying it back because they have no job or make very little in comparison to paying for basic necessities like shelter. Shelter construction and energy consumption are two additional wheels that you can discuss on your own time. The Entertainment Industry: CONsumer sits on their butt complaining about whatever theyve heard on TV or internet while waiting for pizza. The entertainment industry has one purpose...to keep your mind occupied in order to keep you from seeing and thinking about what is going on around you. Now that weve finished our pizza, lets look down and brush the crumbs off our bellies. Now we have the diet industry. The most effective diet plan is the stop shoving food down my throat that I dont need plan. Not going to get into the medical wheel of the bus. Otherwise, return back to beginning of story and place yourself in the livestock category, for we have become economic CONsumer cattle. Mission accomplished. MOOOOOOO!!! CONsumer files bankruptcy because he no longer has credit to pay for more pizza. CONsumer keeps most of the useless trash they didnt need anyway. New credit cards are issued and the cycle starts all over again. Bankers dont care because they have more people paying in at a faster rate than those in bankruptcy court. After all, theyre just imaginary numbers declared legal by mans law. Now lets all run out and dig a deeper debt hole to the bankers like good little CONsumers. How about a pizza?
