The correct answer is C. The company could not exist without their hard work.
Explanation: The worker’s statement expresses a sense of collective ownership and the importance of labor in the success of the mill. They believe that their contributions are essential to the company’s operations and profits, implying that their hard work is what sustains the business, not just the ownership of Mr. Carnegie.
