Real Courage, You Know You're Licked, You Begin Anyway, Atticus Finch, Harper Lee

Abolish Social Security, Unemployment Insurance, Labor Laws, Farm Programs, They Are Stupid, Dwight D. Eisenhower
“Should any political party attempt to abolish social security, unemployment insurance and eliminate labor laws and farm programs you would not hear of that party again in our political history. There is a tiny splinter group of course that believes you can do these things. Among them are a few other Texas oil millionaires and an occasional politician or business man from other areas. Their number is negligible and they are stupid.” ― Dwight D. Eisenhower
