Economy is idealism in its most practical form.

When service is performed, the individual performing it is entitled to the compensation for it. His creation becomes a part of himself. It is his property.

Socialism and communism cannot be reconciled with the principles which our institutions represent. They are entirely foreign, entirely un-American. We stand wholly committed to the policy that what the individual produces belongs entirely to him to be used by him for the benefit of himself, to provide for his own family and to enable him to serve his fellow men.
