Are They Marxists?

Nothing could be more American than an independence-minded cowboy riding the range in the Big Sky country of Montana- right? So who would have ever thought that the first overt admission of the Democrats' Marxist bent would have come from none other than Montana's own US Senate Finance Committee Chair Max Baucus, who conceded the passage of the health care legislation occurred to help overcome "mal-distribution of income in America". This startling revelation is not an act of socialism, which would merely portend government ownership or effective control of the means of production, but a blaring declaration of redistributionist intentions in the path followed by Communists the world over as they gain power. Senator Baucus heralded this as a plan for "income shift", but the scheme rewards the dole dweller at the expense of the productive and saps the ability of private sector employers to create jobs. Thank you for your frankness and honesty Senator Baucus, perhaps more fellow Democrats will embrace your refreshing candor.
