Quote by Benjamin Tucker

One thing, however, is sure, - that in all cases the effort should be to impose all the cost of repairing the wrong upon the doer of the wrong. This alone is real justice, and of course such justice is necessarily free.

One thing, however, is sure, - that in all cases the effort

Summary

This quote emphasizes the concept of justice and argues that the responsibility for repairing the harm caused by a wrong action should solely fall on the wrongdoer. The quote suggests that true justice lies in ensuring that the individual who committed the wrongdoing bears the full cost of rectifying their actions. Furthermore, it implies that this form of justice is inherently fair and requires no payment, as the wrongdoer should be the one to bear the burden of the consequences resulting from their offense.

The need for collecting large campaign funds would vanish if

The need for collecting large campaign funds would vanish if Congress provided an appropriation for the proper and legitimate expenses of each of the great national parties, an appropriation ample enough to meet the necessity for thorough organization and machinery, which requires a large expenditure of money. Then the stipulation should be made that no party receiving campaign funds from the Treasury should accept more than a fixed amount from any individual subscriber or donor; and the necessary publicity for receipts and expenditures could without difficulty be provided.
