Louis O. Kelso - Quote

Quote

"The Roman arena was technically a level playing field. But on one side were the lions with all the weapons, and on the other the Christians with all the blood. That's not a level playing field. That's a slaughter. And so is putting people into the economy without equipping them with capital, while equipping a tiny handful of people with hundreds and thousands of times more than they can use."

--Louis O. Kelso in Bill Moyers: A World of Ideas II, Public Opinions from Private Citizens, (1990, both book and video) page 214, ISBN 0385416644
