This decade only? Think its been since the market started. Even Al Capone called it a racket.

I don't see a lot of Jamie Reid in this at all. I mean it's kinda got the ransom lettering on top -- kinda -- but that's about it. Am I missing something..? 

It's been going on for longer than a decade but the satire is still effective as a take on an advertising tag line.cktbreaker wrote:This decade only? Think its been since the market started. Even Al Capone called it a racket.

I really like this one too.
Something like this will be in a museum 100 years from now next to the Occupy print.
A little worried how the future will judge the last decade, but it will depend on how the next few pan out...

I dont get it, what is the hand taking out of the briefcase and is the hand stealing the "easy money" from Wall Street? Isn't wall street the one doing the stealing not the ones being stolen from? I like the other one with the cars way better.

Think this piece is pretty good. Given the world state, I wish we got a lot more stuff like this.

So what's up with the $75 price point? I've only seen his prices rise for charitable prints. Is it just to cover Reid's involvement?
