Excerpt from An Inquiry Into the Principles of the Distribution of Wealth Most Conducive to Human Happiness: Applied to the Newly Proposed System, Voluntary Equality of WealthSuch are the results of the present system upon the three great classes into which Society is usually divided. TO call it Society, indeed, is a solecism, for instead of its bang an union of many for one general interest, his a grotesque assemblage seeking to take advantage of each others Ignorance and helplessness. It is not a wise and scientific association, but a rude unskilful agglomeration; - not a number of atoms brought together as by strong chemical afiinities, and forming a regular and harmonious body, but a number of repulsive particles held together as by mechanical force, and forming an amorphous and dis cordant body -in fine, in the nervous language Of a popular writer of the day, it is not order, but anarchy, - plus a street constable.But why should such a condition be endured? Shall it be said that, with all our knowledge and experience, a rational system of society, in which the interests and happiness of all shall be carefully combined, is yet un attainable? US there any lack of means - supposing them properly organised - to produce a superabundance Of wealth - that is, the necessaries, comforts, and luxuries of life - for all, with ample leisure for the highest cultivation of the intellectual faculties and moral qualitie the acquisition of the most refined habits and tastes NO one who has any pretensions to knowledge on the subject.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
