Today's quote

[infrogmation]

"Demanding money under threat of extinction -- money that will then be given to the very people who created the threat of extinction in the first place -- is only called “extortion” if you use a gun and ask for less than seven figures.

And is only called “Socialism” if you use tanks and ask for a few billion.

But if you use a television camera and ask for a trillion, it's wise fiscal policy and everyone should just shut up, jump on board the Free Market Unity Pony and stop pointing fingers at people."
