19-- - Quote: "When, forty years ago, at the Congress at
Baale, I made the draft for the organization of Jewish Palestine, I
had in my mind the complete picture of such an economically as well
as politically perfect democracy. I had already gone through the
school of the great American genius, Henry George, who, in his
famous book "Progress and Poverty" draws a picture of
perfect democracy, materialized by breaking the monopoly of the
land. There is not the slightest flaw in it, except for what he
calls "the Remedy," his "Single Tax," wich
certainly is not the panacea he believed it to be. And I had already
uncovered an almost-flawless historical example of a perfect
democracy in the magnificent economic history of medieval Germany
during the four centuries when her population had free access to the
immense stretches of the Slavic East. I published this in 1898, in
my book: "Large Landed Property and the Social Question."
