When Purim came along in Chelm, it was very hard to find real aniyim because most of the townsfolk had money. Finally, Gimpel der Yold found a real, live ani living in the next town.
The rov of Chelm, Rav Kapoyer, said: “Gimpel, make sure that guy stays poor or we won’t have any aniyim for matnois le’evyoinim next year! Let’s bring him to Chelm, build him a mud hut, give him a job shoveling the streets with a teaspoon and we’ll pay him four kopeks a month! Then when Purim comes along we’ll give him a few copper crowns!”
This is the way of the left. They need to keep as many people on the bottom and dependent upon them for money, housing and makework jobs as possible – or they won’t have people to vote for them in the next election.
