Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Unpopular Review, Vol. 8 Germany and the United States are engaged in one common cause - in establishing democracy. We have been establishing It at home by overcoming the efforts of our proletariat to destroy it with clubs and dynamite; of our demagogues by vitiating the currency and all property rights, and offering the proletariat lawlessness as the price of votes; and of our politicians by wasting our taxes and selling our resources to venal interests; and now we are about to help establish it away from home. Germany is establishing it by demonstrating that the evils attending it with us are as nothing compared with the horrors that have resulted from absolutism with her, and that inevitably result from the lust of power - a lust which always grows with the absolute possession of It. And now the champions of democracy and the champions of absolutism have at last reached the inevitable struggle which. It may be hoped, will bring the world-old question its settlement. It seems to rest mainly with us to make that settlement final. It has come to us to throw the final weight into the scale. Mill or Spencer - we forget which, probably both, and probably many other wise men, have called attention to the fact that If you want to turn a scale, unless you put on the final needed trifle all you put on is wasted. That will be the case with all the blood and treasure put into this war by the losing side. The United States does not propose to be on that side.
