"The necessaries of life..."

                      this may give some insight into economic policy today

                       some things take a leap  of faith

"The necessaries of life for man (people) in this climate may,
accurately enough, be distributed under several heads of
Food, Shelter, Clothing, and Fuels; for not till we have secured
 these are we prepared to entertain the true problems of life
with freedom and a prospect of success." H. D. Thoreau

Aristides was banished because the townspeople tired
of calling him "The Just"..
