.... gilding and beautifying our city, as if it were some vain women decking herself out with costly stones and thousand talent temples." "Pericles' answer to the people was that the Athenians were not obliged to give the allies an account if how their money was spent, provided that they carried in the war and kept the Persians away. " All they supply is money," he told the Athenians, " and this belongs not to the people who give but to those who receive it, so long as they provide he services paid for."

Although Truman found much opposition to his programs in Congress he managed to get several things done. Such as a public housing bill, an expansion of social security coverage, and increased minimum wages. The Republican party was not in favor of the majority of this legislation.
