"Should any political party attempt to abolish social security,
unemployment insurance, and eliminate labor laws and farm programs,
you would not hear of that party again in our political history. There is
a tiny splinter group, of course, that believes that you can do these
things. Among them are a few Texas oil millionaires, and an
occasional politician or businessman from other areas. Their number is
negligible and they are stupid."
--President Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1952
[the second part seems on target, but not the first. Ike ignored the
role of money in politics, I guess.]
