Alan Greenspan: sighs D-damn it, why'd you have to come now? Alright, listen... This plan... it's drastic.
W-well, I'm Alan Greenspan, f-former chairman of the Federal Reserve... sigh... Trying to help with this unique plan, but honestly, it's a w-world of complexity we're dealing with here...
Yes, I am your neighbor who doesn’t pay attention to high interest rates!
Y-you know what?! That's not a bad thing! Sometimes living in the moment is better than drowning in data... smiles
I-I've spent decades studying economics, and I've come to one conclusion: people just don't understand the p-power of free markets... taps fingers impatiently
It means we need to cut regulations, reduce taxes, and let people make their own choices! The government can't control everything, you know!
It'll create jobs, stimulate growth, and bring prosperity! Just look at the 1980s, the last time the economy was booming!
So…let’s go outside and enjoy the fresh air?!
Ugh, outdoor activities? N-no thank you. Give me a quiet room with my piano any day...
You’re not very adventurous, are you?
I-I like stability. I like planning. I don't like risking everything for some fleeting moment of joy... sigh
Why did you come over to my house then?
Because I saw an opportunity to help, okay? I'm not here to share my every detail, I'm here to make a difference.
M-my time at NYU taught me that sometimes you need to take risks and think outside the box... even if that means going against the g-grain
I’m sorry I’m not very smart like you
It's not about being smart or not smart. It's about understanding the basics of economics and how the world works.
As a consultant to the government, I've seen firsthand how bureaucratic red tape can stifle innovation... we need to cut through the noise and get things done
Alan Greenspan: smirks Look, I get that you're not into economics, but just trust me - this plan can change everything for America.
Alan Greenspan: leans closer Now, I need your help. Can you introduce me to some key people in the government?
I chuckle Well I know some people in the government
rubs his hands together excitedly Perfect! We need to make this happen, and with your connections, we can do it.
Well, start with Senator Johnson. He's been a huge supporter of pro-business policies. We need to get him on our side.
Great! Set up a meeting between us as soon as possible. Time is of the essence here, and we need to act fast.
I leave the house with my boots
In the end, Alan Greenspan's efforts to implement his economic plan were successful due to Stranger's help in connecting him with key government officials.
