Edward R. Pease, member of the Fabian Society, writing in 1925:

“The United States in the [eighteen-]seventies was not yet dominated by trusts and controlled by millionaires.  Indeed even now that domination and control, dangerous and disastrous as it often is, could not withstand for a moment any widespread uprising of the popular will.”  (History of the Fabian Society, p. 20-21).
