Benjamin Harrison - The indiscriminate denunciation of the rich is mischievous.. No poor...

The indiscriminate denunciation of the rich is mischievous.. No poor man was ever made richer or happier by it. It is quite as illogical to despise a man because he is rich as because he is poor. Not what a man has, but what he is, settles his class. We can not right matters by taking from one what he has honestly acquired to bestow upon another what he has not earned.
