Andrew Jackson, established an important principle of American-style democracy-that you measure the health of our society not at its apex, but at its base. Not with numbers, however shaky they are these days, that come out of Wall Street, but with the living conditions that exist among the people who are carrying the true load of society.

The problem is, Professor Num Nutts, that DemonRATs are not concerned with living conditions of anyone, only in buying votes. In doing so, they are paying out the dividends of those who carry the load of society and give them to those who are a LOAD ON SOCIETY. Pretty much everything else they say is a LOAD.
