Quote by Abraham Lincoln

You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer down.


You cannot lift the wage earner up by pulling the wage payer

Summary

This quote emphasizes that improving the financial situation of the wage earner should not involve harming or undermining the wage payer. It suggests that instead of addressing income disparity by reducing the wages or success of those providing employment, efforts should focus on uplifting the earning capacity and opportunities for those in lower income brackets. It emphasizes the need for constructive solutions that benefit both parties rather than creating a zero-sum game where one's progress is at the expense of the other.
