George Fitzhugh's Sociology for the South; or, the Failure of Free Society Quote

"The statistics of France, England, and America show that pauperism and crime face pari passu with liberty and equality. How can it be overwise, when all of society is combined to oppress the poor and the weak-minded? The rich man, however good he may be, employs the laborer who will work for the least wages. If he is a good man, his punctuality enables him to cheapen the wages of the poor man. The poor war with one another in the race of competition, in order to get employment, by underbidding; for laborers are more abundant than employers. Population increases faster than capital" (Fitzhugh).
