Lessons

Somewhere in this great aching country of ours, a mother scolds her child. Then she soothes him, gives him a cookie, and the cycle begins again.

Today on Capitol Hill, the cookie children gather to beg for more. I hope Ben Bernanke enjoys playing out his paternal instincts and slapping these little brats on the wrists. We'll be the ones to remember the sting.
