Political Survival Kit > Joseph Sobran

Politicians never accuse you of "greed" for wanting other people's money -- only for wanting to keep your own money."
 -- Joseph Sobran

Hat tip to SayUncle and a string of hat tips beyond him. And in comments someone notes an even pithier quote:

"‘Need’ now means wanting someone else’s money. ‘Greed’ means wanting to keep your own. ‘Compassion’ is when a politician arranges the transfer."
 -- Joseph Sobran
