  2. The free market is like an apple tree. You feed manure to the roots that hold up the whole system and all the fruit goes to the branches on top. Occasionally a piece accidently falls to the ground and you have what is call the trickle down theory.

    Isaac Newton?
    Did he make it one of the immutable laws
    of human action?
