Howard Zinn Quote
An anonymous pamphleteer in Massachusetts, writing angrily after King George’s War, described the situation: Poverty and Discontent appear in every Face (except the Countenances of the Rich) and dwell upon every Tongue. He spoke of a few men, fed by Lust of Power, Lust of Fame, Lust of Money, who got rich during the war. No Wonder such Men can build Ships, Houses, buy Farms, set up their Coaches, Chariots, live very splendidly, purchase Fame, Posts of Honour. He called them Birds of prey . . . Enemies to all Communities—wherever they live.
