Fair

An "economic fairness" agenda has emerged as the single, most unifying Democratic idea of the election season. --WaPo 5-15-12

It is not fair for someone to have whatever someone else doesn't have?  I am aftaid I am about to get started.  I can feel my blood simmering, coming to a boil.

Fair, and I repeat myself, is where 4-H kids go to show their pigs and goats.

Oh, you can be so relieved that I restrained myself.

I guess fair is when a person holding office increases his wealth from three million to ten million in three years - and that during bad economic times. At the very least, I think it would be fair for him to tell us where he is investing his money at such a high rate of interest. With our interest rates, we notice only a tiny monthly increase in our accounts.

Vee, no kidding. Or perhaps one has to have the three million to start with? "Tiny monthly increase"? Does 62 cents qualify as "tiny"?
