"All that was required of them was a primitive
patriotism which could be appealed to whenever it was
necessary to make them accept longer working hours or
shorter rations. And even when they became discontented,
as they sometimes did, their discontent led nowhere,
because, being without general ideas, they could only
focus it on petty specific grievances.  The larger evils
invariably escaped their notice."
