The Unsolved Riddle of Social Justice by Stephen Leacock, Political Science, Public Policy, Economic Policy 12+

📓 "What is the meaning of all this that we see? Is this wealth or is it povery?" asks Stephen Leacock in this clear-headed and highly readable study of work, wages, and social utopia."The world seems filled with money and short of goods -- while even in the midst of this very scarcity a new luxury has broken out," he states. "The capitalist rides in his ten thousand dollar motorcar. The seven-dollar-a-day artisan plays merrily on his gramophone in the broad daylight of his afternoon that is saved, like all else, by being 'borrowed' from the morning!"While he gained his fame as a writer from such amusing books as Frenzied Fiction, Nonsense Novels, and Literary Lapses, Stephen Leacock (1869-1944) was also Professor of Political Economy at McGill University, Montreal.
