Interesting post. I did not realize that. Would you please post the link?

It doesn't take a genius, of course, to puzzle out that the elite and the unwashed masses have different agendas.

I am intrigued by the concept of forcing rich people to build triremes for defense. These days, we force the middle class to pay for our triremes, and everything else, as well. Although I understand that social scientists will argue that the rich still pay most of the taxes, the definition of "rich" has been scaled down quite a bit. Another example of lying with statistics.
