Nothing has changed in 60 years.

 

“Republicans approve of the American farmer, but they are willing to help him 
go broke. They stand four-square for the American home--but not for housing. 
They are strong for labor--but they are stronger for restricting labor's 
rights. They favor minimum wage--the smaller the minimum wage the better. They 
endorse educational opportunity for all--but they won't spend money for 
teachers or for schools. They think modern medical care and hospitals are 
fine--for people who can afford them. They consider electrical power a great 
blessing--but only when the private power companies get their rake-off. They 
think American standard of living is a fine thing--so long as it doesn't spread 
to all the people. And they admire of Government of the United States so much 
that they would like to buy it.”
