The New Deal, says Reich, was based on high-minded attempts at reform, but instead of producing an altered democracy it simply created more rules and regulations.

"Even the presence of particular female company in the absence of intercourse, after a period of separation, usually caused an obvious increase in beard growth." As a byproduct of his research, the scientist also found that increased beard growth was associated with tension, mental fatigue, alcohol and increased shaving. On the other hand, it is apparently curtailed by heavy exercise and high temperatures...
