Me, pulling down a chart when anyone asks me a question about modern society: "Okay, to understand this, we have to go back to early market economics of Mesopotamian city-states..."
History repeats itself... Except now we have climate change and nukes.
I have nothing to add (sorry!) but reading "..back to early market economics of Mesopotamian city-states.." had me rolling, thank you.
