"For those of you who don't understand Reaganomics, it's based on the principle that the rich and the poor will get the same amount of ice. In Reaganomics, however, the poor get all of theirs in winter"
- Mo Udall
About this Quote
Mo Udall's quote is an amusing way of explaining Reaganomics, which was a set of financial policies implemented by President Ronald Reagan in the 1980s. The quote is making a joke that the abundant and the bad will get the exact same quantity of ice, however the poor will get all of theirs in winter season. This is a metaphor for how Reaganomics preferred the rich over the bad, as the rich had the ability to gain from the policies more than the bad. The quote is likewise suggesting that the rich were able to take advantage of the policies year-round, while the poor were only able to benefit in the winter. This is an amusing way of highlighting the inequality that Reaganomics created.
