http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean-Baptiste_Colbert
Little quote: "He achieved a reputation for his work of improving the state of French manufacturing and bringing the economy back from the brink of bankruptcy. ... Historians note that, despite Colbert's efforts, France actually became increasingly impoverished because of the King's excessive spending on wars."
So much for originality george bush.. ;)

There's also youtubes from people complaining about sarcasm vids because they simply don't get them.
