To each according to his need, and from each according to his means" is a quote from Karl Marx. I really don't like to hear the Chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee quoting Karl Marx.

That's a quote Marx took from other sources, forget just which ones at the moment. And one that has been used in many contexts by many folk.

Nor is it particularly objectionable. However, it doesn't strike me as one typical of Rostenkowski. Any source for the quote? And context in which he said it?
