How can you make a statement like that, then turn around and argue for handouts for the less fortunate? Here's a bit of a life lesson for anyone who wants it: If $500 is enough to rescue you from the squalor you currently live in, you're not living in squalor.
Quote:Ultimately, however, we will see which theory is best, trickle up or trickle down. After the last 8 years, I'm willing to at least give trickle up a try.
We tried it. From 1980-1988 we had a TRUE conservative mind, and now people call the 80s the decade of excess. Then in 92 we did it the other way, and things started to fall apart.
