Quote #5 on Economic Struggle Quotes >> Socialism and Freedom
“...a return to small-ownership, which is obviously not going to happen and in fact cannot happen. There is little question now of averting a collectivist society. The only question is whether it is to be founded on willing cooperation or on the machine-gun.”
