"The wealthy, not only by private fraud but also by common laws, do every day pluck and snatch away from the people some part of their daily living.

They invent and devise all means and crafts, first how to keep safely without fear of losing that which they have unjustly gathered together, and next how to hire and abuse the work and labor of the people for as little money and effort as possible."
