1 grind the faces of the poor
жестоко угнетать, безжалостно эксплуатировать бедняков [этим. библ. Isaiah III, 15]In the democratic press he was as sailed... as an oppressor of the people, who ground the faces of the poor, and fattened in the luxury wrung from the toiling millions. (Fr. Norris, ‘The Pit’, ch. IX) — Демократическая печать обрушилась на него... называя его угнетателем народа, эксплуататором бедных, разжиревшим за счет миллионов тружеников.
Machiavelli, himself as lean as a rail, did not like fat men, he was used to say that no man could grow fat in Italy without robbing the widow and the orphan and grinding the faces of the poor. (W. S. Maugham, ‘Then and Now’, ch. VIII) — Макиавелли, сам тощий как жердь, не любил толстяков. Он утверждал, что в Италии можно разжиреть, только грабя вдов и сирот и наживаясь на бедняках.
