[Cicero once wrote:
The poor man works nonstop.
The rich man lives off the poor man’s labor.
The soldier protects them both.
The taxpayer foots the bill for all three.
The banker robs all four.
The lawyer twists the truth for all five.
The doctor sends a bill to all six.
The criminal terrifies all seven.
And the politician?
He lives like a king—off all eight.
Written in 43 BC.]
Sounds like it was posted this morning?
And may I add another line, “the majority of citizens who ignore the corruption of the system will eventually witness the rotting of their individual souls and they will exist within a society which engulfs darkness and which eventually passes the point of no return.”
