A penny for your thoughts? 🪙🧠
After inflation, we're gonna have to renegotiate.
A quarter for your thoughts.
50¢ if they're original.
$1 if they challenge the dominant narrative.
$5 if they survive peer review.
$50 if a consultant puts them in a PowerPoint.
$500 if McKinsey discovers them.
$5,000 if the government commissions a study about them.
And somehow, after all that...
the person who had the thought still gets a penny. 😂
That's inflation under capitalism:
the thought didn't become more valuable.
The intermediaries did. 💸
