Ayn Rand Unions Quotes & Sayings

Let anyone who believes that a high standard of living is the achievement of labor unions and government controls ask himself the following question: If one had a "time machine" and transported the united labor chieftains of America, plus three million government bureaucrats, back to the tenth century - would they be able to provide the medieval serf with electric light, refrigerators, automobiles, and television sets? — Ayn Rand

Loafing failures - I saw the labor unions who won every claim against me, by reason of my ability to make their livelihood possible - I saw that any man's desire for money he could not earn was regarded as a righteous wish, but if he earned it, it was damned as greed - I saw the politicians who winked at me, telling me not to worry, because I could just work a little harder and outsmart them all. — Ayn Rand
