From time to time, I'll share my favorite quotes. This one is from author Nelson Algren, who included it in his book, A Walk on the Wild Side:
"When we get more houses than we can live in, more cars than we can ride in, more food than we can eat ourselves, the only way of getting richer is by cutting off those who don't have enough."
He had no idea how prescient his words would be in these days of doing so very much to help the rich get richer, at the detriment of the poor.
Anyway, thanks to Algren for that quote. If you don't know him, he's most famous for warning that we should never eat at a place called Mom's.
