“Have you had a cab driver using a cell phone? I’m in the cab this morning coming to work and I said, ‘Look, look, look.

“In Philadelphia, a government program offering a $10,000 tax credit to any business hiring an ex-con had no takers. In fact, you know the way most ex-cons actually get jobs? They get re-elected.” – Jay Leno
