And speaking of freedom is not the author free,as few men are free? Is he not secure, as few men are secure?
The tools of his industry are so common and so cheap that they have almost ceased to have commercial value. He needs no balky pile of raw material, no elaborate apparatus, no service of men or animals. (64)
