Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Land and Labor in the United States In the preparation of this volume it has been my purpose to bring into the discussion those great factors that have been, heretofore, so uniformly overlooked, or designedly ignored. The condition of the great masses of the people - their idleness and their employment, with their consumption as well as production - appear to me to be matters of the utmost importance. The radical change in all our methods of production is another thing that seems to be of great interest, and vitally affecting the welfare of mankind. But I have failed to find that others have deemed them of sufficient moment to merit even the most casual inquiry. It has long been a decided conviction in my mind that a knowledge of the condition of the people is of as great importance as the knowledge of their number, and I succeeded in having a clause added to the last census bill, providing for an enumeration to he made of the number who were found idle, also of the employed, and the amount of their employment during the previous year. But the method adopted in taking the census made it valueless. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
