Raise a Little Less Corn

lease

I have to say I like this woman’s balls nerve.  Mary Elizabeth Lease, a founder of the Populist Party (a farm and labor supported political party that took on the Democrats and Republicans in the late 1800’s to fight for (among other things) economical reform, is quoted as saying; “What you farmers need to do is raise a little less corn and a little more hell.”  Ha ha.
