To throw aside even this transparent metaphor, those means of the fructification of labour, the land, machinery, capital, means of transit, &c., which are now monopolized by those who cannot use them, but who abuse them to force unpaid labour out of others, must be free to those who can use them; that is to say, the workers properly organized for production; but you must remember that this will wrong no man, because as all will do some service to the community—i.e. TO THROW ASIDE EVEN THIS TRANSPARENT METAPHOR THOSE MEANS OF THE FRUCTIFICATION OF LABOUR THE LAND MACHINERY CAPITAL MEANS OF TRANSIT ET CETERA WHICH ENORM MONOPOLIZED BY THOSE WHO CANNOT USE THEM BUT WHO ABUSE THEM TO FORCE UNPAID LABOR OUT OF OTHERS MUST BE FREE TO THOSE WHO CAN USE THEM THAT IS TO SAY THE WORKERS PROPERLY ORGANIZED FOR PRODUCTION BUT YOU MUST REMEMBER THAT THIS WILL WRONG NO MAN BECAUSE AS ALL WILL DO SOME SERVICE TO THE COMMUNITY THAT IS

The privilege of the proprietary class must come to an end. Remember that at present the custom is that a person so privileged is in the position of a man (with a policeman or so to help) guarding the gate of a field which will supply livelihood to whomsoever can work in it: crowds of people who don’t want to die come to that gate; but there stands law and order, and says “pay me five shillings before you go in;” and he or she that hasn’t the five shillings has to stay outside, and die—or live in the workhouse. Well, that must be done away with; the field must be free to everybody that can use it.
