    Do not be deluded by the abstract word Freedom. Whose freedom? Not the freedom of one individual in relation to another, but freedom of Capital to crush the worker.

      This is more a distinction between positive and negative liberty. Positive liberty is the freedom to do something, and negative liberty is the freedom from something.
