In 493 BCE, Rome's wealthy landowners were in a panic. They had held the reins of government of the new Republic while the workers (also called plebeians) farmed the land. Workers complained that the rich were useless. The plebeians began to move into the city, where they became craftsmen, traders, and hired workers. They no longer had to depend completely upon the landowners. They were free to complain and demand greater equality between rich and poor. They took action and left the city in huge number. Rome couldn't survive without the work of the plebeians. Menenius convinced the workers that their rebellion would be a disaster for the rich and the poor alike. Thanks to Menenius' persuasion, the workers agreed to go home. It is natural for Roman workers to have complaints. If I had been a worker at that time, I would have had the same complaint with them. It seemed to me that rich people were indifferent to poor people's sufferings. If I had listened to Menenius, I would also have been convinced. I think that just as workers were suffering in the past, so are they suffering now.
