Malloy was talking about the Minnesota governor caving in to Republicans by not passing a measly 3% tax increase on the rich. So Malloy started talking about what happened during the French Revolution and how many of the rich faced the guillotine. If you look at an overview of what went on back then it is similar to what we're seeing now in the US. Something similar also brought the Bolshevik Revolution. Both situations were where a small percentage of the rich owned most of the wealth. I read recently where the rich in the US have been buying $250,000 guard dogs.
