You KNOW, the Pearl Harbor attack was really great for the nation

According to Hair Furor’s Logic, the sneak attack brought the country together, increased manufacturing beyond anyone’s wildest dreams, and stimulated research, all the while giving America servicemen and women the chance to travel to far-away, exotic places like the Pacific, where my father spent four years, or Europe with all its cultural sights and capital cities.

Yes, there’s nothing like a tragedy to stimulate the positive. Thank the Lord for the Coronavirus. Perhaps we could reintroduce polio to assist the crutch and leg-brace manufacturers. Yeah, that’s the ticket....

The body harvesting sector revenue increase may be questionable, unfortunately, since we are talking about contaminated corpses. The futures on that remain to be seen, but we can keep our fingers crossed.
