declared:
"Freedom
comes first. Men and women must have the right to defend the
truth as they see it; to worship God as they see fit; to live
as they wish to live, so long as they do not interfere with
the rights of others.
"No man should have an advantage over his fellow-men
through contorl of a natural resource. Every man is entitled
to protection from the products his own efforts, but not for
the products which belong to all of us.
"The government should take the revenue from products of
natural resources to pay the costs of government and
distribute the residue among all of us. This would remove tax
burdens, revive business and industry, decrease prices and put
idle men to work.
"What folly it is to talk of regulating monopoly, when
we grant to an individual, or a few individuals, control of
the natural resources with which God has so richly endowed our
country. Monopoly of that kind cannot be regulated. The only
cure is to abolish it."
