A 4-Year-Old's Take on the Economy



Big BK: "I use to work at that coal dock."
Mommy: "What happened?"
Big BK: "I got laid off."
Mommy: "Why?"
Big BK: "They shut it down."

This is an actual conversation that took place between me and my oldest child on Sunday, April 24, 2010 on Mommaw's front porch. It is not a reenactment. Big BK was not coached to say these things. This is a spontaneous conversation, or it had been at one time. The incident on Mommaw's front porch was in fact a reenactment of a spontaneous conversation for the benefit of those present. Or it might have happened at the birthday party earlier in the afternoon, I forget. Anyway, this conversation did take place at the instigation of my child.
