Quote #11 on Economic Struggle Quotes >> Workers and Socialism
“We communists believe that the working class is a unit, and in organization ought to be a unity; in other words, that in industrial affairs there should be One Union, inclusive of all workers, subdivided according to industry for economic purposes, and resubdivided again for technical or craft purposes since craft crosses industries.”
