My Granddaddy used to tell me about vote buying in South Carolina…$5.00 and a bottle of whiskey.
Ecclesiastes
8 All things are wearisome,
more than one can say.
The eye never has enough of seeing,
nor the ear its fill of hearing.
9 What has been will be again,
what has been done will be done again;
there is nothing new under the sun.
10 Is there anything of which one can say,
“Look! This is something new”?
It was here already, long ago;
it was here before our time.
You are right, Fred– there is nothing new under the sun.
I wonder, though, why the vote-buying only seems to be committed on behalf of one particular political party.:)
