An old joke from my younger days: What do you get when you cross a
Godfather with a deconstructionist? Someone who makes you an offer you
can’t understand.

It’s really not clear what the plan means; there’s an interpretation
that makes it not too bad, but it’s not clear if that’s the right
interpretation.
