Quote #16 on Economic Struggle Quotes >> Workers and Social Organization
“Once unions reach the closest goal, to organize the association of workers to give them better economical conditions, the step not far to unloading the heavy burden of slavery, through the overtaking of production by the wage slaves, which therefore is made common property of the whole society, and when the now present and unfair randomly distribution of wealth with its unavoidable consequences, wealth for a few privileged and misery and poverty for the masses, will be succeeded by a more just and natural distribution of the good of this earth, to which we all as humans and brothers have the same rights.
This is the so condemned, so twisted, so misunderstood and so feared goal of socialism, a goal so high and mighty that no culture ever in the past can measure to it. Therefore, workers, join this movement! You have nothing to lose, but everything to win. Join together under the red flag of socialism and go bravely and energetically forward. The future belong to you, on this you can be sure.”
