![]() Interesting Norman Mailer quote turned up on 'Word of the Day' digest today that is obviously germane to current debate.
To blame the poor for subsisting on welfare has no justice unless we are also willing to judge every rich member of society by how productive he or she is. Taken individual by individual, it is likely that there's more idleness and abuse of government favors among the economically privileged than among the ranks of the disadvantaged. Norman Mailer (1923-2007)
