It has been mis-attributed to PT Barnum but someone
else coined the phrase "There's a fool born every
minute ..."
In our dumbed-down politically-radicalized selfishness-
obsessed keeping-ahead-of-the-joneses world it is
easier than ever to con " people who believe in nothing ..."
to " ... fall for anything!"
Checked the ebay price of a Halli SX-88 lately?
