legislate to make the masses prosperous, their prosperity will find its way up through every class which rests upon them Quote
 

“There are two ideas of government. There are those who believe that, if you will only legislate to make the well-to-do prosperous, their prosperity will leak through on those below.

In this quote, Frederick Douglass is vividly describing the horrors of the slave trade from his perspective. He speaks of hearing the “doleful wail” or cries of anguish from enslaved people being forcefully taken away in chains and transported to “slave-markets”.

There, human beings would be treated as commodities and “sold like horses, sheep, and swine” to whoever offered the highest price through an auction. Douglass emphasizes how deeply traumatic this was, as the “tenderest ties” or closest familial bonds were “ruthlessly broken” without regard for the people involved.

All of this was done to satisfy the “lust, caprice and rapacity” or greedy, cruel and exploitative desires of those buying and profiting off the slave trade. Douglass expresses his deep personal revulsion and sickness at witnessing the inhumane system of people being reduced to property and sold without mercy for the benefit of slave traders.

Douglass continued: “millions are pocketed every year by dealers in this horrid traffic. In several states this trade is a chief source of wealth
