From The Boomer Bible, Book of Adam
Chapter 34 And since they've come up, it's important for you* to know that banks will be an incredibly important part of Capitalist societies like America, 2 Because every Capitalist Nation will always need a whole bunch of boring avaricious people in blue suits to watch everybody's money, 3 Because the most important principle in every Capitalist Nation is the principle that nobody can be trusted, 4 Ever, 5 Except banks, of course, 6 Which are extremely trustworthy, 7 Or why would they have so many boring drones in blue suits to watch over your money all the time? 8 Besides, if banks weren't trustworthy, why would people give them money and let them lend it to other people, 9 Without even asking the people who gave them all their money in the first place? 10 Not to mention the fact that if bankers weren't trustworthy, they'd probably get involved in a lot of risky financial speculation that could cause a huge depression someday, 11 Which wouldn't do Capitalism any good at all. Chapter 35
