Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book details how economic centralization was radically changing the United States by concentrating wealth and power in the hands of a few while impoverishing the masses. The author argues that this inevitable evolution toward centralization of industry would inevitably destroy the nation unless the government intervened to provide employment for those thrown out of work by automation and other labor-saving innovations. The author posits that a "Government Employment Law" guaranteeing a minimum wage of one dollar and fifty cents per day of eight hours would solve this problem, raising all wages and stimulating the economy. This book is a fascinating look at the social and economic problems facing the United States during a period of rapid technological advancement. The author's insights into the causes of poverty and the role of government in mitigating its effects remain relevant today.
