Ode to the welfare state



Ode to the Welfare State


A poem printed by the AP news service in 1949.  Not likely AP would print the same today but this poem could have been written just yesterday.

The poem in context featuring the first ratbastard to use the phrase "Trickly Down Theory" to demonize his opponents. Circa 1949.
