"The Western land, nervous under the beginning change. The Western States, nervous as horses before a thunder storm. The great owners, nervous, sensing a change, knowing nothing of the nature of change. The great owners, striking at the immediate thing, the widening government, the growing labor unity; striking at new taxes, at plans; not knowing these things are results, not causes. Results, not causes, results not causes. The causes lie deep and simply--the causes are hunger in a stomach, multiplied a million times; muscles and mind aching to grow, to work, to create, multiplied a million times."
Can you feel the nervousness of the owning class? I can. <3
