Most socialists had hitherto said that in our present civilized societies we actually produce much more than is necessary for guaranteeing full well-being to all.
But suppose the workers owned all the railways.
The amount of interest in socialism and all sorts of schemes of reform and reconstruction of society was very great in all layers of society.
