In his last letter he said, "[T]he mass of mankind has not been born with saddles on their backs, nor [were] a favored few [born] booted and spurred, ready to ride them."
A different revolution occurred in 1917, the communist revolution led by Vladimir Lenin and Leon Trotsky.
Trotsky was a spokesman for his communist principles. He said, "the old principle, "[he] who does not work shall not eat," has been replaced by a new one: [he] who does not OBEY shall not eat."
"Obey" who? Leon Trotsky considered himself one of the favored few born booted and spurred, ready to ride the rest of us.
