Jain has raised this issue: ----------------------------------------------- The difference between Republicans and Democrats is this: if a Republican who cannot swim sees a man drowning 50 feet from shore, he throws the man a 25-foot rope and tells him to swim the rest of the way because it's good for him. If a Democrat who cannot swim sees a man drowning 50 feet from shore, he throws the man a 100-foot rope, then drops the other end and goes off to do another good deed.
