THE POLITICIANIf it wasn't for graft, you'd get a very low type of people in politics. Men without ambition. Jellyfish! CATHERINEEspecially since you can't rob the people anyway. T H E POLITICIANSure..How was that? C A T H E R I N E What you rob, you spend. And what you spend goes back to the people. So where's the robbery? I read that in one of my father's books. T H E POLITICIANThat book should be in every home!. Preston Sturges
About This Quote

The politician got this right, don't rob the people, because what you spend goes back to the people. The only problem with what the politician said is that it isn't true. Most of the money that politicians spend goes to their own pockets and not back to the people. It also allows them to do more and do less with it.
