Bread II

"Less Bread! More Taxes!--and then all the people cheered again, and one man, who was more excited than the rest, flung his hat high into the air, and shouted (as well as I could make out) 'Who roar for the Sub-Warden?' Everybody roared, but whether it was for the Sub-Warden, or not, did not clearly appear: some were shouting 'Bread!' and some 'Taxes!', but no one seemed to know what it was they really wanted."
-Lewis Carroll,
"Sylvie and Bruno" (1889)
