Salon.com Technology | Dilbert's a weasel and so are you
Topic: Society 10:07 pm EDT, Oct 21, 2002

"They say that you know you're in a stock bubble when your cab
driver is giving you stock advice. And right now, looking around,
OK, it's no big surprise that your politicians are weasels and
your CEOs, because those are the people who even try to get those jobs in the first place.

But once you start noticing that your historians are making stuff up and your figure-skating judges are rigging their events, and your priests are dating children and having better sex lives than rock stars, that's what I call a bubble. That's the cab driver giving you stock tips.

I think that we're in this gigantic, unprecedented bubble of weaselness. "

I wish I was old enough to know whether this is a new phenomenon or whether things have always been this way.
