This Question Of Legal Plunder Must Be Settled Once And For All, And There Are Only Three Ways To Settle It: (1) The Few Plunder The Many. (2) Everybody Plunders Everybody. (3) Nobody Plunders Anybody.

In Short, Is Not Liberty The Freedom Of Every Person To Make Full Use Of His Faculties, So Long As He Does Not Harm Other Persons While Doing So?

As Long As It Is Admitted That The Law May Be Diverted From Its True Purpose - That It May Violate Property Instead Of Protecting It - Then Everyone Will Want To Participate In Making The Law, Either To Protect Himself Against Plunder Or To Use It For Plunder.

Legal Plunder Can Be Committed In An Infinite Number Of Ways; Hence, There Are An Infinite Number Of Plans For Organizing It: Tariffs, Protection, Bonuses, Subsidies, Incentives, The Progressive Income Tax, Free Education, The Right To Employment, The Right To Profit, The Right To Wages, The Right To Relief, The Right To The Tools Of Production, Interest Free Credit, Etc., Etc. And It The Aggregate Of All These Plans, In Respect To What They Have In Common, Legal Plunder, That Goes Under The Name Of Socialism.
