“Many of you are well enough off that…the tax cuts may have helped you. We’re saying that for America to get back on track, we’re probably going to cut that short and not give it to you. We’re going to take things away from you on the behalf of the common good.”

"There is no greater force for economic growth than free markets. But markets work best with rules that promote our values, protect our workers and give all people a chance to succeed. Fairness doesn't just happen. It requires the right government policies."

ReplyDeleteI don't know--color me skeptical.
Here's a research project for you, Brad: make a list of Hillary quotes, each with a corresponding quote by some famous communist (Marx, Castro, Chavez, ...) that echoes the same sentiment. It shouldn't be hard to find the parallels.
