If we had a Karma market, I'd share some of mine...

If you start with a Karma market, sooner or later someone will start a Karma futures market, based on potential future Karma earnings. Next thing you know we'll have a maemO.Org SEC making sure there is no hanky-panky going on. Do you really want to be the impetus to all that regulation?

Wow, nevermind, it seems the Karmic cronjob has now awarded me 20 points! Does this mean I can run for Pope?

The Pope job ain't what it used to be. You can't live like a king anymore, and you aren't considered infallible either. Infallibility is important to me. I like being right. All the time.

You can still wear Prada slippers and lots of Gucci.

Lipstick red Prada loafers to be exact! And Gucci sunglasses!


Perhaps I should add these to the costumes we designed. Wasn't it you complaining about the shoes anyway??

It's those dang Karma credit default swaps that will get you into trouble. They would contribute to an artificial Karma bubble.

Don't forget the Karma speculators and short-sellers. Sheesh. We just started this thing and need a watchdog organization already...
