QUOTE OF THE DAY

“Day by day the money-masters of America become more aware of their danger, they draw together, they grow more class-conscious, more aggressive. American political corruption was the buying up of legislatures and assemblies to keep them from doing the people’s will and protecting the people’s interests; it was the exploiter entrenching himself in power, it was financial autocracy undermining and destroying political democracy.”

Upton Sinclair was a socialist activist and author.

His socialistic ideas seem to have been adopted by many and are pervasive in our society today as demonstrated by movements such as Occupy and Antifa.

But we did get Federal food safety regulations out of his efforts, in the end at least some good came from his efforts.
