Quote from Thurman Arnold,


"[The US has] developed two coordinate governing classes:
the one, called ‘business,' building cities, manufacturing and distributing goods,
and holding complete and autocratic power over the livelihood of millions;
the other, called ‘government,' concerned with preaching and exemplification of spiritual ideals,
so caught in a mass of theory, that when it wished to move in a practical world
it had to do so by means of a sub rosa political machine."
