I'm not questioning your differentiation between the two concepts but I'm confused about why you introduced "to each according to his means" into the discussion. From the horse's mouth: JimS, I can remember Dan Rostenkowski, when he was the Ways and Means chairman, saying "from each according to his means, and to each according to his need." Message 22616619 JimS, "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. Perhaps you think that the US Congress doesn't follow enough Marxism? Message 22617262 But what Marx actually said was, "from each according to his ability, to each according to their need."
