What happens when a dead humorist discovers that modern economics makes less sense than hermit crab behavior? In this wickedly satirical masterpiece channeling Will Cuppy's observational genius, we trace humanity's greatest organizational achievement: the perfection of systematic irresponsibility. From Ancient Greeks who invented democracy as a spectator sport to modern AI systems programmed with the biases of their corporate creators, this is the definitive guide to how everyone became responsible for nothing. Discover:¿ Why strawberry plants are better economists than actual economists¿ How the Circle of Blame makes everyone complicit while no one accountable¿ Why housing shortages exist alongside empty properties (spoiler: it's profitable)¿ How daily bread became a complex financial instrument¿ Why the revolution will not be algorithmized¿ The eternal tug-of-war between human nature and inhuman systems Featuring guest appearances by Adam Smith, Karl Marx, Medieval theologians, Renaissance geniuses, Industrial Revolution profiteers, and various other practitioners of organized chaos-plus appreciations by William Blake and G.K. Chesterton on why systematic absurdity has become humanity's most successful export. "A savage journey into the heart of systematic irresponsibility that makes 'Catch-22' look like a training manual for rational behavior." -Hunter S. Thompson
