It is we who plowed the prairies; built the cities where they trade, Dug the mines and built the workshops; endless miles of railroad laid. Now we stand outcast and starving, 'mid the wonders we have made; But the Union makes us strong.

All the world that's owned by idle drones, is ours and ours alone. We have laid the wide foundations; built it skyward stone by stone. It is ours, not to slave in, but to master and to own, While the Union makes us strong.

I know this is off topic, but can someone please explain the use of the word, "Rule" lately. I tried urban dictionary and it didn't help. Is it kind of self-explanatory, because it seems to be used in a similar way to the normal use. Thanks and sorry for the hijacking.

The rule of the 196 community is that you're supposed to post a submission of your own before leaving, and it's customary to include the word "rule" in your post in reference to that rule.

Thank you. I see now. This title is kind of clever.
