"The few own the many because they possess the means of livelihood of all ...
The country is governed for the richest, for the corporations, the bankers, the
land speculators, and for the exploiters of labor. The majority of mankind are
working people. So long as their fair demands - the ownership and control of
their livelihoods - are set at naught, we can have neither men's rights nor
women's rights. The majority of mankind is ground down by industrial oppression
in order that the small remnant may live in ease."
