Doc Friedman's House of Curation

EndoStim is a little start-up I was introduced to on a recent visit to St. Louis. The company is developing a proprietary implantable medical device to treat acid reflux

-Friedman!
Oh LOLZ! Let's translate:
The company is brewing a patent medicine certain to cure the woes of heartburn and indigestion!
Otherwise I urge you to count the companies named.

Why is he such a bad writer? How?

Such a device will be of great assistance when reading his columns.

No, the device doesn't help with the burning caused by the stupid.

"You’ve heard that saying: As General Motors goes, so goes America. Thank goodness that is no longer true. I mean, I wish the new G.M. well, but our economic future is no longer tied to its fate. No, my new motto is: As EndoStim goes, so goes America."

I think trapped inside Friedman is Kirsten Stewart's soul, I can't explain how he writes like a teenage girl otherwise. "GM was, like, sooo yesterday girlfriend!"

"It is the epitome of the new kind of start-ups we need to propel our economy: a mix of new immigrants, using old money to innovate in a flat world."

Really, why is Friedman working at the New York Times and ignoring his true calling as an infomercial host?

From what I can tell, Friedman's economic prescription for America is for every worker in the country to come up with a viable idea for a product that nobody else has thought of before.

If everybody in America were above average, we wouldn't have problems anymore!

It's like he majored in Business Administration at his local JC, or something.

"Step right up for the magic elixer! No need to change your diet, just insert a propriety implantable medical device into your esophagus... NEVER WILL YOU SUFFER AGAIN!"

any connection by Friedman of heartburn to the food habits of Americans?

why do you make a mockery of such a valiant effort, in America's WAAR? (War Against ACID REFLUX)

dont you see that it's implantable? like a pacemaker for your oesophagus? how can you not see the Revolutionary aspects of this?
