“The way to crush the bourgeoisie is to grind them down between the millstones of taxation and inflation.” — Vladimir Ilyich Lenin
But where did this quote originate from? Did Lenin really say this? A search of Lenin’s Collected Works doesn’t reveal anything similar to it, and no version of it I’ve found has an original source.
@야호맨A final note, regarding the origins of the “crushing/grinding millstones” metaphor (which seems to be a perpetual threat to reading audiences, as much as to the middle class): this phrasing appears to have originated in Henry George’s 1879 book Progress and Poverty. The namesake of Georgism wrote,
Private ownership of land is the nether mill-stone. Material progress is the upper mill-stone. Between them, with an increasing pressure, the working classes are being ground.

저 앞말 조차 레닌이 한게 아니라는 것을 아시다니 대단합니다.

1879년 조지 헨리가 유일하게 비슷한 말을 한 것으로 분석됨.
@야호맨 그러네 내가 찾아본걸론 레닌이 인터뷰중에 첫문장 뉘앙스의 발언을 한적이 있다 정도로 봄
