Laurance Labadie Quotes

• Some people are averse to competition and allow the words 'co-operation' and 'humanism' to drool from their mouths, apparently meaning thereby a large blob of protoplasmic homogeneity that lacks all individuality. It is not individuals and their liberty that concerns them, but rather some sort of well greased squirming mass that would seem to be analogous to the brains from which such amorphous 'ideas' emanate.

The only equality they posit and will strive their utmost to defend is the equality of opportunity. This necessitates the maximum amount of freedom for each individual. This will not necessarily result in equality of incomes or wealth but will result in returns proportionate to service rendered.

Primero fabricamos personas indigentes y superfluas mediante monopolios legales de tierras, dinero y patentes de ideas, erigiendo barreras arancelarias para proteger a los monopolios de la competencia extranjera y gravando con impuestos a los trabajadores para subvencionar a los agricultores ricos y a los fabricantes privilegiados. Luego creamos "trabajadores sociales", etc., para que se ocupen de ellos y establecemos así un fenómeno institucionalizado autoagravado y permanente.

• From the Anarchist standpoint, these artificial hindrances which are the cause of three main forms of usury-interest, profit, and rent, are, in the order of their importance, monopoly in the control of the circulating medium-money and credit, private property in land not based on occupancy and use, patent rights and copyrights, and tariffs.
