Fox Host: "All right, joining me now is former congressman Alan Grayson, who is one of the more colorful and controversial Democrat members of the House. Congressman, you recently said there are 5 things needed to be quote 'middle class'. Number one, having a job. Number two, owning a home. Number three, owning a car. Number four, having affordable health care, and number five, a pension. Congressman, where's the pony? Wait a minute, wait a minute, I want a baseball team! Can I have a baseball team, Congressman?"

Alan Grayson: "Sorry, do you have a question here?"
(laughter)

Fox Host: "Yeah, the question is, who, whose gonna pay for the house, the car, the pension, the health care, if every American is supposed to have one? Where is the money coming from?"


Alan Grayson: "No, I think you misunderstand my point. My point is that people in America, three quarters of us, enjoy a middle class lifestyle, at least for now. And they have those 5 things. A quarter of us don't. And more and more, people are falling out of the middle class and into the lower class in this country, that is the point I was making. I think it's a fact. It's not something to say, it's not even something you can argue about, about a quarter of the country has a net worth of about a thousand dollars."

Alan Grayson: "Well, I think we've seen an attack on these programs from the right, the right wants to eliminate medicare, eliminate medicaid, eliminate social security, and also not help people who are out of a job, not help people who are losing their homes or in danger of losing their homes, not help people who are in danger of falling out of the middle class. There is one party that wants to help and there is another party that doesn't care."

Fox Host: "Who is gonna pay for it, sir?

Alan Grayson: "What do you mean by that?"

Fox Host: "I would like to sit at home all day in my backyard and play with my kid, in fact, maybe he shouldn't have to go to school, maybe the government can help him out too, he doesn't even have to go to school cause it won't matter cause he won't need a job, if, under your plan, everyone is gonna get some help from the government every time things go south."


....................

Fox Host: "That's socialism, right there! That's, Marxism in fact!"
