Summary
This quote, typically attributed to journalist and critic H.L. Mencken, suggests that to achieve financial success, one should not rely on the discerning taste or sophistication of the American public. It insinuates that catering to popular, sometimes less refined or simplistic preferences is more likely to yield financial gains. Mencken implies that underestimating the public's taste might be an effective strategy, as it aligns with the notion that mass appeal and profitability often go hand in hand, even at the expense of artistic or intellectual merit.
