Cicero's philosophy

Rome's Cicero's (106 - 43 BC) "the legendary silver tongued orator" philosophy revisited below;

1. The poor - work and work,

2. The rich - exploit the poor,

3. The soldier - protects both,

4. The taxpayer - pays for all three,

5. The wanderer - rests for all four,

6. The drunk - drinks for all five,

7. The banker - robs all six,

8. The lawyer - misleads all seven,

9. The doctor - kills all eight,

10. The undertaker - buries all nine,

11. The Politician - lives happily on the account of all ten.

As applicable today as it is applicable in those days….
