When asked about the apparent drift towards a "redistribution of wealth" philosophy here in the United States, her reply was fairly plain spoken:
PICKET: "In terms of government today, we're seeing this share the wealth philosophy ... this redistribution of wealth ..."
RIVERS: "Yeah ... really thrilled about that. Go f*** yourself. Could I be any clearer? I worked all my life...all my life, and no one has given me a penny. I have paid every tax. The whole thing, and I pay my way. I don't want to give my money to a third-generation welfare family ... sorry. Go out and go to work."
(In the context of the interview, it does appear that Rivers' invective is directed towards the idea of wealth redistribution, and not towards the interviewer!)
