Excerpt from The Dollar or the Man?: The Issue of to DayHistory is coming to construe social inequity in terms of social peril. Asked: Who is the offender? Few annalists would fail to point a retributive finger the way of the plutocrat. But it may be said even to the pauper, even to the man or woman robbed He whom you accuse is only incidentally or oracularly the criminal. But for you he could not exist. He is yoked with you drawing a common load. The fact that he happens to be the beneficiary and you the victim of this arrangement is not abstractly of much importance. When the miniature villain is grown up, when he acquires a logical maturity, we understand his characteristics. The little shop gathers its harvest of profits with the same relentless hand as the trust. It exacts all it can collect. In the trust the small dealer has reached his majority. Monopoly is next of kin to the tyranny of the atom.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
