Naturally, Southerners, like slaveholders, are liberal and public spirited. - George Fitzhugh

We say allowance, not wages; for neither slaves nor free laborers get wages, in the popular sense of the term: that is, the employer or capitalist pays them for nothing of his own, but allows them a part, generally a very small part of the proceeds of their own labor.

But the capitalist, living on his income, gives nothing to his subjects. He lives by mere exploitation.

The great object of government is to restrict, control and punish man ‘in the pursuit of happiness.’
