Transcript| Homeless Monkey: | Say, man, can you spare a couple of bucks? |
| Rich Monkey: | Spare a...? Son, let me tell you a story... |
| Rich Monkey: | For the past few years, I've been a senior executive with a major multinational corporation. I've been on the receiving end of ever federal subsidy, favorable tarriff legislation, tax break, and government contract known to man! |
| Rich Monkey: | Then, when the bottom fell out, we went to the government for a massive bailout check. That's a few billion we don't have to share with our erstwhile employees! We've laid off hundreds, but my salary has never had so much as a hiccup! |
| Homeless Monkey: | So... you're saying you CAN spare a couple of bucks? |
| Rich Monkey: | No, my brother, I'm saying you're working the wrong corner! |
