Recent news stories have
highlighted humorous
contradictions in the planned
austerity reforms that will
affect virtually all Western
powers. Namely anti-austerity
protesters are a most austere
bunch comprised of many low-
income working class people.
And those in favor of austerity
are high-income heads of State
and industry who live in luxury.
Regardless of my own opinion
of the new austerity measures,
I propose Hilari-austerity. This
new kind of hilarious austerity
will offset the asceticism of
scrooginess with comical
inconsistencies that will leave
people in stitches, without the
follow up medical coverage to
have them removed
professionally.

So, if a gunman used less bullets in a political assassination, would that be considered *austere*? |
