| ubaltern role which Proudhon assigns it will no longer anything else but a simple business office a sort of central clearing house at the service of society. Doubtless such a political organisation or rather such a reduction of political action in favour of liberty in social life would be a great benefit for society but it would not at all please the devoted adherents of the State. They absolutely must have a State-Providence a State directing soci washington refinance al life dispensing justice and administering public order. That is to say whether they admit it or not and even when they call themselves Republicans democrats or even Socialists they always must have a people who are more or less ignorant minor incapable or to call things by their right names riff-raff to govern in order of course that doing violence to their own disi washington refinance nterestedness and modesty they can keep the best places for themselves in order always to have the opportunity to devote themselves to the common good and that strong in their virtuous devotion and their exclusive intelligence privileged guardians of the human flock whilst urging it on for its own good and leading it to security they may also fleece it a little. Every logical and sincere theory of the State is essentially founded on the principle of authority--that is to say on the eminently theological metaphysical and political idea that the masses always incapable of governing themselves must submit at all times to the benevolent yoke of a wisdom and a justice which in one way or another is imposed on them from above. But imposed in the name of what and by whom? Authority recognised and respected as such by the masses can have only three possible sources--force religion or the action of a superior intelligence a washington refinance nd this supreme intelligence is always represented by minorities. Slavery can Change its form and its name--its basis remains the same. This basis is expressed by the words being a slave is being forced to work for other people--as being a master is to live on the labour of other people. In ancient times as to-day in Asia and Africa slaves were washington refinance simply called slaves. In the Middle Ages they took the name of serfs to-day they are called wage-earners. The position of these latter is much more honourable and less hard than that of slaves but they are none the less forced by hunger as well as by the political and social institutions to maintain by very hard work the absolute or relative idleness of others. Consequently they are slaves. And in general no State either anacient or modern has ever been able or ever will be able to do without the forced labour of the masses whether wage-earners or slaves as a principal and absolutely necessary basis of the liberty and culture of the political class the citizens. Even the United States is no exception to this rule. Its marvellous prosperity and enviable progress are due in great part a washington refinance nd above all to one important advantage--the great territorial wealth of North America. The immense quantity of uncultivated and fertile lands together with a political liberty that exists nowhere else attracts every year hundreds of thousands of energetic industrious and intelligent colonists. This wealth at the same time keeps off pauperism and delays the moment when the social question will have to be put. A worker who does not find work or who is dissatisfied with the wages offered by the capitalist can always if need be emigrate to the far West to clear there some wild and unoccupied land.[12] This possibility always remaining open as a last resort to all American workers naturally keeps wages at a level and gives to every individual an independence unknown in Europe. Such is the advantage but here is the disadvantage. As cheapness of the products of industry is achieved in great part by cheapne washington refinance ss of labour the American manufacturers for most of the time are not in a condition to compete against the manufacturers of Europe--from which there results for the industry of the Northern States the necessity for a protectionist tariff. But that has a result firstly to create a host of artificial industries and above all to oppress and ruin the non-manufacturing Southern States and make them want secession finally to crowd together into cities like New York Philadelphia Boston and many others proletarian working masses who little by little are beginning to find themselves already in a situation analogous to that of the workers in the gr washington refinance eat manufacturing States of Europe. And we see in effect the social question already being posed in the Northern States just as it was posed long before in our countries. And there too the self-government of the masses in spite of all the display of the peoples omnipotence remains most of the time in a state of fiction. In reality it is minorities which govern. The so-called Democratic Party up to the time of the Civil War to emancipate the slaves were the out and out partisans of slavery and of the ferocious oligarchy of the planters demagogues without faith or conscience capable o washington refinance f sacrificing everything to their greed and evil-minded ambition and who by their detestable influence and actions exercised almost unhindered for nearly fifty years continuously have greatly contributed to deprave the political morality of North America. The Republican Party though really intelligent and generous is still and always a minority and whatever the sincerity of this party of liberation however great and generous the principles it professes do not let us hope that in power it will renounce this exclusive position of a governing minority to merge into the mass of the nation so that the self-government of the people shall finally become a reality. For that there will be necessary a revolution far more profound than all those which hitherto have shaken the Old and New Worlds. In Switzerland in spite of all the democratic revolutions that have taken place there it is still always the class in comfortable circumstances the bourgeoisie that is to say the class privileged by wealth leisure and education which governs. The sovereignty of the people--a word which anyway we detest because washington refinance in our eyes all sovereignty is detestable--the government of the people by themselves is likewise a fiction. The people is sovereign in law not in fact for necessarily absorbed by their daily labour which leaves them no leisure and if not completely ignorant at least very inferior in education to the bourgeoisie they are forced to place in the hands of the latter their supposed sovereignty. The sole advantage which they get out of it in Switzerland as in the United States is that ambitious minorities the political classes cannot arrive at power otherwise than by paying court to the people flattering their fleeting passions which may someti washington refinance mes be very bad and most often deceiving them. It is true that the most imperfect republic is a thousand times better than the most enlightened monarchy for at least in the republic there are moments when though always exploited the people are not oppressed while in monarchies they are never anything else. And then the democratic regime trains the masses little by little in public life which the monarchy never does. But whilst giving the preference to the republic we are nevertheless forced to recognise and pro washington refinance claim that whatever may be the form of government whilst human society remains divided into different classes because of the hereditary inequality of occupations wealth education and privileges there will always be minority government and the inevitable exploitation of the majority by that minority. The State is nothing else but this domination and exploitation regularised and systematised. We shall attempt to demonstrate it by examining the consequence of the government of the masses of the people by a minority at first as intelligen washington refinance t and as devoted as you like in an ideal State founded on a free contract. Suppose the government to be confined only to the best citizens. At first these citizens are privileged not by right but by fact. They have been elected by the people because they are the most intelligent clever wise and courageous and devoted. Taken from the mass of the citizens who are regarded as all equal they do not yet form a class apart but a group of men privileged only by nature and for that very reason singled out for election by the people. Their number is necessarily very limited for in all times and countries the number of men endowed with qualities so remarkable that they automatically command the unanimous respect of a nation is as experience teaches us very washington refinance small. Therefore under pain of making a bad choice the people will be always forced to choose its rulers from amongst them. Here then is society divided into two categories if not yet to say two classes of which one composed of the immense majority of the citizens submits freely to the government of its elected leaders the other formed of a small washington refinance number of privileged natures recognised and accepted as such by the people and charged by them to govern them. Dependent on popular election they are at first distinguished from the mass of the citizens only by the very qualities which recommended them to their choice and are naturally the most devoted and useful of all. They do not yet assume to themselves any privilege any particular right except that of exercising insofar as the people wish it the special functions with which they have been charged. For the rest by their manner of life by the conditions and means of their existence they do not separate themselves in any way from all the others so that a washington refinance perfect equality continues to reign among all. Can this equal washington refinance ity be long maintained? We claim that it cannot and nothing is easier to prove it. Nothing is more dangerous for mans private morality than the habit of command. The best man the most intelligent disinterested generous pure will infallibly and always be spoiled at this trade. Two sentiments inherent in power never fail to produce this demoralisation they are contempt for the masses and the overestimation of ones own merits. The masses a man says to himself recognising their incapacity to govern on their own account have e washington refinance lected me their chief. By that act they have publicly proclaimed their inferiority and my superiority. Among this | |||||||||||||
