Democracy and socialism have nothing in common but one word equality. But notice the difference while democracy seeks equality in liberty socialism seeks equality in restraint and servitude. There can be no equality or opportunity if men and women and children be not shielded in their lives from the consequences of great industrial and social processes which they cannot alter control or singly cope with.
