How about this comparison for Rmoney and Ryan?

Watching documentary on the French Revolution. Cast Rmoney as Marie Antoinette and Ryan as Louis. Louis dabbles in financial reforms. His misguided interfering burdens the poor with heavy taxes while the nobility pay hardly any at all.

They had instituted deregulation.
