So apparently this exists, and it's kind of amazing. Observe:

You know, I'm going to take a punt, and say maybe a 17 year old show about a talking sea sponge cooking burgers is not exactly the best material to learn capitalism from.
 
The idea of Karl Marx watching SpongeBob makes me laugh :P This does seem a bit like overanalyzing the show, though.
 
I read the excerpt. It was GREAT.

You can tell it is when there's a chapter named "Does Anyone Have a Quarter?"
 
Well, this is unique. I wonder who the target age group is though...I mean, the typical age group watching the show wouldn't know much about philosophy or be interested, but adults probably wouldn't rather spend their time reading about SpongeBob. Maybe it's custom made for people like us? :P
 
i don't even know what philosophy means LULZ

Philosophy
For other uses, see Philosophy (disambiguation).
Philosophy is the study of the general and fundamental nature of reality, existence, knowledge, values, reason, mind, and language.[1][2][3] The Ancient Greek word φιλοσοφία (philosophia) was probably coined by Pythagoras[4] and literally means "love of wisdom" or "friend of wisdom".[5][6][7][8][9] Philosophy has been divided into many sub-fields. It has been divided chronologically (e.g., ancient and modern); by topic (the major topics being epistemology, logic, metaphysics, ethics, and aesthetics); and by style (e.g., analytic philosophy).

As a method, philosophy is often distinguished from other ways of addressing such problems by its questioning, critical, generally systematic approach and its reliance on rational argument.[10] As a noun, the term "philosophy" can refer to any body of knowledge.[11] Historically, these bodies of knowledge were commonly divided into natural philosophy, moral philosophy, and metaphysical philosophy.[9] In casual speech, the term can refer to any of "the most basic beliefs, concepts, and attitudes of an individual or group," (e.g., "Dr. Smith's philosophy of parenting").[12]
