Honest Abe had it right

“You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. You cannot help the wage earner by pulling down the wage payer. You cannot further the brotherhood of man by encouraging class hatred. You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich. You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more that you earn. You cannot build character and courage by taking away man’s initiative and independence. You cannot help men permanently by doing for them what they can do for themselves.”

— Abraham Lincoln

Seems at least this particular president had a good understanding of how things work.

Perhaps we should start from scratch because something has gone really wrong.
