Don't Expect To Build Up The Weak

History Reveals No Civilized People Among Whom There Was Not A Highly Educated Class And Large Aggregations Of Wealth. Large Profits Mean Large Payrolls.

We Demand Entire Freedom Of Action And Then Expect The Government In Some Miraculous Way To Save Us From The Consequences Of Our Own Acts.... Self-government Means Self-reliance.

No Enterprise Can Exist For Itself Alone. It Ministers To Some Great Need, It Performs Some Great Service, Not For Itself, But For Others; Or Failing Therein, It Ceases To Be Profitable And Ceases To Exist.

Nations Are Beginning To Look To Some Vague Organization, Some Nebulous Course Of Humanity, To Pay Their Bills And Tell Them What To Do. This Is Not Local Self-government. It Is Not American. It Is Not The Method Which Has Made This Country What It Is. We Can Not Maintain The Western Standard Of Civilization On That Theory. If It Is Supported At All, It Will Have To Be Supported On The Principle Of Individual Responsibility.

One Of The Greatest Favors That Can Be Bestowed Upon The American People Is Economy In Government.
