(Kropotkin, The Conquest of Bread (1892), chapter 4, part II)

The landlord owes their riches to the poverty of the peasants, and the wealth of the capitalist comes from the same source.

Business talents.

If they choose a lucrative trade, and have "business talents," they will soon increase their income by doubling the number of people they exploit.

So they become a personage of importance. They can afford to give dinners to other personages--to the local magnates, the civic, legal, and political dignitaries. With their money they can "marry money"; by and by they may pick and choose places for their children, and later on perhaps get something good from the Government--a contract for the army or for the police.
