Partial list of things as they really are (these are not all original to me):
- Universities are hedge funds that run research labs and have football teams.
- Fast food companies are real estate firms with kitchens.
- Democracies are insurance companies with armies.
- Public (government) schools are unions that run day care centers.
- Police departments are unions that run protection rackets.
- Banks are time-travel machines for assets that tax uncertainty.
- Home Ownership is tax-sheltered/favored investment masquerading as industrious virtue.
- Public libraries are intellectual social status symbols with warehouses.
- Churches are mutual-aid societies that offer moral guidance and tribal solidarity.
