To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is not the first time that wild and lunatic remedies have been prescribed for public ills. It is not the first time that foreign revolutionary theories have invaded the United States. It is not the first time that property rights have been attacked in their very citadel. American conservatives were once quite as terrified by the spread in this country of the extreme theories of the French Revolution as they are now terrified by the spread of Bolshevism. They were quite as eager for repressio...n; yet the French Revolution never shattered a single American institution. It raised up no American breed of Marats and Robespierres. It set up no guillotines on American soil and beheaded no aristocrats. The American people threshed the issue out and went on their way. Is it not possible that they still retain a scanty remnant of their ancient common sense? Is it not possible that they might even listen to a sympathetic exposition of the maniacal principles of Bolshevism with- out being seized with an irrepressible desire to destroy everything they have created and give themselves over to famine and disease and anarchy In order to establish a dictatorship of the proletariat?
