Shouldn't that be "a sword of Damocles"?

Or do they plan to start lynching the republicans?

When you casually mug the rich you usually only get spare change.

To make them cough up more of their ill got gains (sell off at least one
private jet and limit oneself to only half a dozen polo ponies) you got
to seriously threaten their rights and privileges (legal & social) to
exercise the ability to be rich & powerfull (confiscatory taxes, government
regulatory agencies, private property, control of the means of
production) before they will try to bribe you off with a
larger share of their ill-gotten gains.

Which, by then its probly to late anyway and hopefully, carrying that
picture of Chairman Mao wont be so meaningless any how:)
