James J. Hill - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (1876 words)
Hill was once quoted telling a questioner that the secret to success was, "Work, hard work, intelligent work, and then more work." Secondly, he was almost maniacally competitive.
Hill and his men worked in spite of all obstacles—including a presidential veto of a bill that would allow Hill to build legally through American Indian territory (Cleveland later changed his mind).
Hill was a rabid supporter of free trade and was one of the few supporters of free trade with Canada.
Weekly Worker 470 Thursday March 6 2003 (2032 words)
Hill argues that the 17th century saw a social revolution in the full sense: the mobilisation and entry onto the political stage of masses of ordinary people, the overthrow of the old and constitution of a new - capitalist - state, and the radical transformation of economic and social relations, politics and culture.
Hill’s ideas and books, themselves reflecting the (deformed) influence of working class politics in British society between the 1930s and 1970s, reopen the old wound and offer a standing refutation of the “thousand-year constitution”, the “natural conservatism of the English” and all the other garbage.
Hill himself, in his later writings, focused more and more on the revolutionary movement of the masses in the civil war, Commonwealth and Protectorate, and on the survivors of this movement and their experience after its defeat in 1660.
