Quote A:<\/p>\n

“I think it’s simplistic and naive to say people can spend their money better than the government.”<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Quote B:<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen you guys win, you get to keep your money. When we win, we take your money<\/em>.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Quote C:<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd now will these Americans, Children planted by our Care, nourished up by our Indulgence until they are grown to a Degree of Strength & Opulence, and protected by our Arms, will they grudge to contribute their mite to relieve us from the heavy weight of that burden which we lie under?\u201d<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

No peeking – which quote was by:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Charles Townsend, Brit parliamentarian who believed Americans should be happy to pay for a better UK,<\/li>\n
  2. DFL Senate majority leader Larry Pogemiller<\/a><\/li>\n
  3. St. Paul legislator Cy Thao<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Bonus question: What’s the difference, really?<\/p>\n

    A few more terms of DFL control and every Minnesotan will be required to wear diapers.<\/p>\n
