Hillary Clinton at her anti-individual, pro-group, government-activism, business bashing, redistributionist best:
Now, we have seen for more than a century that fairness doesn't just happen. It requires the right government policies. And no one should be surprised, human nature being what it is, people will go as far as they possibly can get away with.
