attributed to jefferson: "the measure of society is how it treats the weakest members"
- Good social welfare also benefits the entire society, not just the people in need of assistance
And in a few years the lunches go, the taxes stay, and everyone is disgusted at the poors demanding stuff for free.
- Ah yes, how dare "the poors" want to eat.
- Nah I think the taxes will be gone in less than a few years because the rich will throw a few thousand dollars at lawmakers and they'll change it for the rich.
Think of how much we could do if we taxed it all!
