Is Hillary Clinton Karl Marx?

Hillary says some unsettling socialist things

The following remarks made by Hillary Clinton were recently brought to our attention by the ever-vigilant Rush Limbaugh.

• "We are going to take things away from you on behalf of the common good."
• "It's time for a new beginning, for an end to government of the few, by the few, for the few, and to replace it with shared responsibility for shared prosperity."
• "We can't just let business as usual go on, and that means something has to be taken away from some people."
• "I certainly think the free market has failed."
• "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."
• "What I want to do is take those (oil company) profits and apply them to alternative energy."
• None of those seven things were said by Karl Marx or Frederick Engels. These statements were all made by Hillary Clinton:on June 29th of '04, May 29th of '07, June 4th of '07, June 4th of 2007, June 4th of '07, and September 2nd of '05.
• "Shared responsibility" is a common theme of Mrs. Clinton. It is also a code-word for socialism
• The whole objective of Mrs. Clinton's health care plan plan is to make it look like she's really not changing much of anything, other than innocently covering everybody with insurance.
• Hillary wants the current system, which is already dysfunctional and half-public, half-private, to break down.
• This is a typical liberal trick,by the way: Stack the deck so the private healthcare part of our current system fails – leaving only one option, the government, to "compassionately" and "responsibly" clean up the mess. That's when she'll do the full-court press for her socialistic solution – the one she's not talking about today.

Our Take

We have to agree that the similarities between Clinton and Marx are worth noting. Furthermore, we have to remember that "shared responsibility" means socialism.You can call it what you want, but that's what it boils down to. When you start mandating the sharing of things in a free market society, it's a slippery slope from which there may not be a return; one that Hilary will take us down if she ever gets the chance. We agree with Rush that this must not happen.
