Description
Why are there ups & downs in the national economy? Why does poverty continue to exist while a minute number of Americans enjoy a staggering increase in their personal wealth year after year? What went wrong in a country that professes to be dedicated to the proposition that we are all created equal? As timely now as it was when it was written in 1871, Progress & Poverty is an honest look at the financial order & the increasingly distorted distribution of income & wealth in America. George lays out simply & elegantly what the underlying problem is and how to solve it.
Henry George (1839-1897) was a noted American economist & founder of the single-tax movement. He first outlined the doctrine in the pamphlet Our Land & Land Policy in 1871 & later wrote the more elaborate treatise Progress & Poverty (1879), which has sold millions of copies all over the world.
