Great comedic minds always seem to have the good sense to look everywhere to find the absurdity in our world. What a shame that Groucho wasn’t known as much for these kinds of great quotes versus his other works.
“I wouldn’t belong to any club that would have me as a member.”
I think Ron Paul left an important word or two out of that quote of his. If you can’t morally steal ….
Otherwise, his quote reads false. Citizens (serfs, plebes, proles) can’t rob their neighbors; but they absolutely CAN have the govt rob their neighbor for them. Assuming we’re talking about reality in America.
