It's enough to make an MSMer nostalgic for the good old days of the Soviet Union, when the masses didn't stampede into stores because there was little of interest to buy and little money to buy it with, and the good stuff was reserved for the ruling elites at special shops.
Here's how ABC's Dan Harris opened today's Good Morning America: "This morning, Black and Blue Friday. America's annual orgy of capitalism gets dicey." Capitalism? Really? Is that the problem?

properly speaking Black Thursday(Thanksgiving Day) if not Black Friday truly is an “Orgy of Materialism”
Actually you stupid jerks, capitalism is what provides all the nice things you a-holes at ABC get to enjoy every day. What you are talking about is “consumerism”. Now without capitalism we would not have as much to consume. Get it dufus?
The opposite is an orgy of children’s shoes.
In the former Soviet Union the government enforced quotas on industries. When a major shoe manufacturer encountered material shortages, to meet the quota so that the managers wouldn’t be sent to a Siberian resort for a little rehabilitation, the company just stopped making adult shoes, which needed more material, and just made children’s shoes. Naturally this led to an acute shortage of adult shoes and an “orgy” of children’s shoes in the marketplace - the quota was met!
It looks like wall to wall Obama voters to me
Looking for cheap stuff - hey, not everything can be free!

I can’t read FR and go out to eat at the same time. I just blew sweet tea all over the table.
Without the “Orgy of Capitalism”, BIG GOVERNMENT could not exist. Barry Benghazi would not be president. Marxists all my have diplomas but they are the stupidest bunch of morons to ever come down the pike. You’ve got to have “the rich” if you want free ObamaCare. You’ve got to have “the rich” if you want to have welfare. You’ve got to have “the rich” if you want tax revenue. Communists are such morons. No wonder communism has NEVER worked anywhere that it has been tried.
So, ABC, in your world who would get the S3's and who would get the S2's?
Do away with capitalism and just give the S3's to the elites and S2's to the proletariats?

Perhaps they should pull all those expensive black friday sales adds off their network . . . . . ..
