Did the French put "Give me your tired, your poor/Your huddled masses..." on the Statue of Liberty to help...?

...Did they write this in order to:



(1) help US rich class industrial and plantation slavers attract more slaves from overseas?



...or to



(2) remind US working class to follow the revolutionary examples of the French in their national revolts against rich class oppressors in 1789 and 1830?



This is exceedingly challenging to pinpoint. Of course, with the French so highly invested in Canada to the north during the period (~1870-1900), and as such invested as well as dependent upon trade with US slaving plutocrats, the argument can be strongly made for (1) above. On the other hand, there remains the meager possibility that working class goals could have somehow slipped through the cracks (as result of such prior successful French revolutions against French slavers) and settled upon the statue.



Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.Did the French put "Give me your tired, your poor/Your huddled masses..." on the Statue of Liberty to help...?
Neither. It's a decorative plaque you pretentious twit.
The French probably would have had a much better and longer lasting revolution if they had just imprisoned the aristocrats for sorting out later and guillotined the Socialists.



Unfortunately they let the Socialists live and look at what happened, the revolution turned into the usual bloodbath and failure.Did the French put "Give me your tired, your poor/Your huddled masses..." on the Statue of Liberty to help...?
No it was done to say America can make anybody successful, even the ones that the European governments saw as problem people.
the french have consistently praised America over the years. It's all good.
Are you a troll? Emma Lazarus wrote those words. BTW she was a pro-union, pro-immigration leftist. Go figure.
You forgot a line.



"Yearning to be FREE".



Not yearning for government benefits.
The French have lost it...completely.
The French didn't do it.
They gave us the Viet Nam WAR! then left us there without support.
