I know it's not historically possible, but I've just got this vision of meglomaniacal Nero, playing on the fiddle, while all around him was being destroyed by fire, and at the same time Marie Antoinette scoffing expensive little cakes.
I suppose it'll be the poor saps who are struggling to survive on crumbs, and who will have to fund this bean feast, who'll be the losers.
