"The definition of insanity is 
doing the same thing over and over again 
and expecting different results." - Einstein

It is
 the poor who 
habitually elect a 
Democrat, or “Liberally Left” mayor, 
and yet 
they remain poor!

"You cannot help the poor 
by destroying the 
rich. 
You 
cannot strengthen the weak 
by weakening 
the strong. 
You cannot bring about 
prosperity by 
discouraging thrift. 
You cannot lift 
the wage earner up 
by pulling the wage 
payer down. 
You 
cannot further the brotherhood of 
man by 
inciting class hatred. 
You cannot build 
character and courage 
by taking away 
people's initiative and 
independence. 

You 
cannot help people permanently by 
doing for them, 
what they could 
and 
should do for 
themselves." 

- Abraham Lincoln
