Quote #3 on Political Struggle Quotes >> State and Freedom

“You say that once economic freedom is gained by the masses, the state as an instrument of oppression and upholder of privilege would be dissolved. The trouble is that economic freedom cannot be gained by the masses unless the state is undermined in the process, for the state will never permit economic freedom.”
