Tiz Posted December 8, 2019 Report Share Posted December 8, 2019 Some people get so wrapped up in auction bidding the loose all sense of reality, same ones who will drive 20 miles out of the way to save 2 cents on a gallon of gas. As P. T. Barnum purportedly said "you will never go broke underestimating the intelligence of the American public." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrangeRanger Posted December 8, 2019 Report Share Posted December 8, 2019 Actually it was H.L Mencken who said "No one ever went broke underestimating the taste of the American public." FWIW he also said "On some great and glorious day the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last, and the White House will be adorned by a downright moron."

Tiz Posted December 9, 2019 Report Share Posted December 9, 2019 I stand corrected: H.L. Mencken is credited with the famous quote “No one ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American public.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
