“I do not think one needs to say that the defense of property means that we must defend a theoretical system of laissez-faire, that, in fact, has never existed except in the mind of liberal protest. Laissez-faire is as millenarian a doctrine as the theories of Marxian socialism. A correction of abuses of industrialism is a problem different from the moral defense of property, and it may be argued that property can be preserved only by reforms in the centralised, urban-industrial complex of modern society.”
