I learned a new word. It looks like the brainchild of vast right-wing conspiracy operators placed in the language to aid people in expressing their notion that vibrant economies cannot persist on hope, handsome officials with nice ties, welfare programs, eloquent speeches, and other rah-rah that does not produce goods and services required to maintain a culturally-accepted standard of living. According to Wikipedia, and a page of search engine results quoting Wikipedia, the word is German for “plunder economy,” and a cause of the fall of Rome. Even if it isn’t a real word, I like it.
