Dammit.. now I have to go fire up my 1776 soundtrack. Yea.. I payed real money for it.
On a more serious note, I think that quote is spot on and catches a subtle but important part of the power of the narrative used by the right to convince people to vote against their own interests. They argue they are maintaining a path to wealth. If you finally do hit on a way to earn lots of money and the government just takes all your income then you won't become rich.. right? They hide behind this argument, but then carve off monopolies for their friends, run up massive debts causing inflation and stealing everyone's money who earns a living or has a savings account, and otherwise create an environment extremely hostile to starting a business and becoming successful.
Back before Reagan, Republicans were actually doing useful things to protect the possibility of becoming rich. Now they're just carving the world up for the wealthy who fund their campaigns while throwing out a constant stream of media smokescreens pretending to do the things that Republican voters want.
