They never hear what Obama says – that he always wanted ordinary Americans and the elderly and the disabled to foot the bill for austerity.<br /><br />Remember when Democrats defended Social Security because they were Democrats?<br /><br />“Tipsy, they tumbled early into bed - to get as much sleep as they could. So they would feel less hunger. The summer catch had been poor; there wasn't much food. They ate with care and looked sideways at the old: the old were gluttons, everybody knew it, and what was the good of feeding them? It wouldn't harm them to starve a little. The hungry dogs howled. The women rinsed the children's bellies with hot water three times a day, so they wouldn't cry so much for food. The old starved silently."<br /> - Yevgeny Zamyatin, “The North,” The Dragon: Fifteen StoriesDenis Nevillenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-974773076690597683.post-73376242118301501392012-12-31T13:28:44.294-05:002012-12-31T13:28:44.294-05:00Thank you for this post.
