not dare to struggle not risk to lose - a slogan for our times.

Or to paraphrase the debate here:

You can't ever get what you want.
You can't ever get what you want.
And since you won't even try, you won't get what you need.

Or perhaps, now that the socialist dream has vanished in the mist of a bygone era: "to each according to how much they've grabbed for themselves, the rest of you can f-off and die."

The promises are nice, but they'd have to cut into our vast military spending, as we have no budget to spare. I think that is where the debate will be.
