"Capitalism is the unequal distribution of wealth. Socialism is the equal
distribution of poverty."
To whom should we attribute this quote?
Putatively, Winston Churchill. But I haven't tracked that to an authoritative source.
This version sound fancier:
"The inherent vice of capitalism is the unequal sharing of blessings. The inherent virtue of socialism is the equal sharing of misery."
- Winston Churchill

Churchill must have had a way too rosy picture of socialism. Real socialism means unequal sharing of misery.
