I have no idea if this should go in the Politics or Humour section. For now, I put it in Humour. Just some ironic bumper stickers I found.
Well, as the banking crisis has shown, this bumpersticker isn't always true. I like what the guy says: | The business climate is not a good one for capitalists, but just like John Galt, you'll win in the end. |
Has he put any thought into why the climate isn't so good for capitalists right now??
This one just flies in the face of reality. If it said "Republicans" instead of Democrats, it'd be more accurate.

What brought that on? this. Original posting here.
Another example of this guy's lunacy here. |

You surely don't mean that stuff was all irony, do you? Those slogans don't look deliberately ironic to me. Like Teabagger thinking, they're simply divorced from reality. At any rate, I wouldn't care to use slogans that are so subtly ironic that they would backfire, with most people taking them as advocating their literal meaning.

Agree. They look serious, if stupid, to me as well.
