Letting you carry an entire library of your favorite music — up to 15,000 songs — or enough photos — as many as 25,000 — to fill nearly 200 slide trays or cover nearly 5,000 square feet of wall space. Got a really big den?

Yes, then we can all give our money and property to the government, and it will all be given out in fair share, just like it should be. Those nasty rich republicans always hogging all the money so there’s none left on my welfare check!
