Who Said This?

Jim M., almost certainly my only reader from the mountains of northern New Mexico, sent me this little message:

Who said this?

1. "We're going to take things away from you on behalf of the common good."
   
   
2. "It's time for a new beginning, for an end to government of the few, by the few, and for the few, and to replace it with shared responsibility for shared prosperity."
   
   
3. "(We) can't just let business as usual go on, and that means something has to be taken away from some people."
   
   
4. "We have to build a political consensus, and that requires people to give up a little bit of their own turf in order to create this common ground."
   
   
5. "I certainly think the free-market has failed."
   
   
6. "I think it's time to send a clear message to what has become the most profitable sector in (the) entire economy - that they are being watched."

Now you might think these were the famous words of the Father of Communism, Karl Marx. And you would be on the right track in thinking so. But you would be wrong. These pearls of socialist/Marxist wisdom are from none other than our very own, home-grown Marxist…

Be afraid, be very afraid!

These actually seem sort of tame to me, compared to her rantings about socialized health care.
