"It has so happened in all ages of the world, that some have laboured, and others have, without labour, enjoyed a large proportion of the fruits. This is wrong, and should not continue. To each labourer the whole product of his labour, or as nearly as possible, is a most worthy object of any good government." -- Abraham Lincoln (b. 1809-02-12, d. 1865-04-15, President of the US 1861-1865)

Some people will use this quote to say that we shouldn't have any of the safety net systems (e.g. WIC, Medicare, Social Security, etc.) ignoring the part about "large proportion of the fruits" which refers to the 1% people
