I love overextended metaphors. Though I like to push the metaphor more slowly to it's eventual nonsensicalness.*

Given that "supply and demand" is pretty much your average Econ 101 prof's answer to any Econ-related question containing the word "why", I'm surprised the Parrot didn't have tenure.
Answer: Economics professors do not care about the ability to teach retarded undergrads economics. Therefore the parrot would not get tenure; it would be hired as adjunct faculty. HIHO!

RAAAAWK! This comic would have been far less funny w/o the "RAAAWK"... half the point is for every part of the parrot to be stereotypical except for the long winded parrot-related philosophical insights, amirite? RAAAAAWK?
