"It's as though we used to put down rat poison, and we didn't have a rat problem. Then the millionaire economists convinced us to stop putting down the poison, and the rats are gnawing our faces off and the economists are all saying: 'Now, now, don't get hysterical, dears. There's no way to know if these rats have anything to do with our pro-rat policy prescriptions. Perhaps the great forces of history bore down on this moment to produce a surge in rat fecundity. Maybe this is just the Time of the Rat.'"
