Everyone and their cousin has used a smorgasbord of analogies to describe the current economic climate.

I think someone should use a jello analogy because that stuff tastes great.
Something like, years of artificially low interest rates from the Fed would be like imbibing Everclear-laden jello shots at a party every night.

But because it tasted great in the past and got you laid, you keep consuming them expecting the results to be onward and upward forever.
QED, right?
