These days, whenever I hear a politician talk about giving "the working public a fair shake" (as I overheard on the teevee a little while back), I now envision them holding us upside down by our ankles to see how much loose change will fall out of our pockets. And maybe, if they're REAL lucky, they can get the whole wallet to fall out.
Feh. I used to say, "When a politician says 'It's for the children,' hold on to your wallet." Now I think "When a politician is talking, hold on to your wallet."

Ever noticed that when "the people" benefit, no individual person ever does?
Yep, 'shake' as in "shake down".
