You don’t know what hard times are, daddy! Hard times are when the textile workers around this country are outta work, and got four or five kids, and can’t pay their wages, can’t buy their food… Hard times are when the auto workers are outta work, and they tell ‘em go home! And hard times are when a man is workin’ a job thirty years! Thirty years! They give him a watch, kick him in the butt, and say, “Hey, a computer took your place, daddy.”…. That’s hard times!

If a presidential candidate redid the hard times promo for 2012, they’d win the election by a landslide.
