"Profit sharing,” proclaims the Rev. Golightly.
"Yes, profit sharing," says William the Conqueror.
"Yea, profit sharing,” says the lion to the lamb. And thus we share so that while one feasts at a banquet another gnaws at the fag-end of a bare bone.
The only profit sharing worthy of the name is that which secures to the public the value caused by the public and leaves to the individual the products of his industry.
---quoted by Edgar Pomeroy, in the Oakland Tribune, July 15, 1899, in a column headed "What the Single Taxers Have to Say"
In 1898-1899, and perhaps beyond, Pomeroy had a regular column in that newspaper, under the heading "News and Notes of Single Tax"
