Again it was grand while it hinted, but again it ended in a crash. WillAT is the lesson of these two VV world-famous sprees? Here it is, In a nutshell: There is NO SUCH THING as something for nothing. We have to work for what wale. A LL the pretty words ever sPok- A-a en since the world began can't change this fundamental fact: Wealth is the product applied to raw materials. When we labor much, there is much wealth. When we labor little. there is little wealth.
