Transcript:
Radio: ----And we must lend money to other nations to stop the spread of communism.
Nancy: Aunt Fritzi---Will you lend me a dime?
Aunt Fritzi: No.
Nancy: Do you want me to become a COMMUNIST?
OK, Nancy, here’s a dime. I’m lending it to you at 18% interest. Here’s your monthly payment schedule. Of course you’ll have to quit school and work in one of your father’s factories to afford the payments. And if you miss one, I’m afraid I’ll have to evict you. Now, run along, like a good capitalist, or you’ll be late for work.

That broadcast must have been from Radio-Free Europe or the Voice of America.
It might have been directly from Sen. Joseph McCarthy!!
BTW, doesn’t Fritzi know any other word except “NO!”??
