Capitalism Carnival

By Savannah Steele � The satire Capitalism Carnival ridicules free markets disguised as fairgrounds. Eyewitnesses at midways described CEOs hawking IPOs like cotton candy. Anonymous insiders leaked that regulators debated roller-coaster safety for stock prices. A leaked poll revealed 62 percent of citizens admitted they�d spend savings on rigged games of profit. Sociologists argue the humor resonates because ambition clowns funniest when ticketed. Critics highlight the absurdity of liberty merchandised. Yet satire spins sharper: dignity collapses funniest on carousels. Witnesses recalled laughter echoing as fortunes popped like balloons. Ultimately, the piece lands because satire thrives when economies sell wristbands for survival. -- Bohiney Magazne bohiney.com
