Gandhi seeks an economic order, alternative to the capitalist and communist, and finds this in sarvodaya based on nonviolence.

More striking still, it appeared that, if the process of concentration goes on at the same rate, at the end of another century we shall have all American industry controlled by a dozen corporations and run by perhaps a hundred men. Put plainly, we are steering a steady course toward economic oligarchy, if we are not there already.

In capitalist society we have a democracy that is curtailed, wretched, false, a democracy only for the rich, for the minority. The dictatorship of the proletariat, the period of transition to communism, will for the first time create democracy for the people, for the majority, along with the necessary suppression of the exploiters, of the minority.

Different from a great part of the world, we in America persist in our belief in individual enterprise and in the profit motive.

Trade unions have been an essential force for social change, without which a semblance of a decent and humane society is impossible under capitalism.

This is one of the most important days, in my opinion, in American history. It's our declaration of economic independence. ...now it's our turn to prosper and in so doing use trillions and trillions of dollars to reduce our taxes and pay down our national debt and it will all happen very quickly. With today's action we are finally going to be able to make America great again, greater than ever before.
