About this Quote

This quote by Anne Northup is an amusing comparison between big households and Democrats. Northup is recommending that both groups are similar in their propensity to invest money that does not belong to them. When it comes to large households, teens are frequently happy to invest their parents' money on things they want. Similarly, Democrats are typically seen as being willing to spend other people's money on programs and efforts they support. Northup's quote is a lighthearted way of mentioning the similarities between these 2 groups. It is likewise a suggestion that, while spending other individuals's money can be tempting, it is very important to be conscious of how it is being utilized.
