More on Economy
“Economy is a great revenue.[Lat., Magnum vectigal est parsimonia.]”
“In recent years, we've become enamored with our own past success. Lulled into complacency by the glitter of our own achievements. We've become accustomed to the title of Military Superpower, forgetting the qualities that got us there.

“It looks to me like the candidates are trying to relieve the farmer of his vote, instead of his debts.”
