He is one of the people who "runs" America.
So I guess he ought to know.

That he, and his fellow congressmen, are the
people responsible for this sad situation.

Let's see if we can encapsulate this: Business is responsible for
wealth, and Congress is responsible for poverty.

Working people have nothing to do with it. Is that about right? g

Hmm. And a stitch in time still saves nine. I don't know about that

I thought the penny earned was worth 1.25 cents - due to the price of
copper.

Due to the price of copper, a penny has been zinc with a copper wash
since 1982.

Nonsense.

All he wanted to do was get re-elected.

WHAT copper? They're made of zinc. That's just a flash of copper. You
can scrape right through it.

1.30 cents or so, depending on your income bracket and where you live.
A saved penny is not taxed.

But what is "poor"? Are they starving to death like poor people do in
some places?

Or is it that they just don't have a working dish washer, or a new
