Satire Alert and Your Political/Economic Humor of the Day: "South Park" 1, US Treasury Leaders 0

The "South Park" episode "Margaritaville" is absolutely jam-packed with satirical potshots at all sorts of targets, but I have to say, their dig at the US Treasury department's policies (and decision-making process) is simply and brilliantly hysterical.

See too the shot at having our debt be paid by our children.

Really, are Matt and Trey doing the country's best satire?

Don't take my word for it; go watch the episode for yourself. (Language warning.)

The best bits, if you are in a hurry, are collected here.
