Publisher's Synopsis
""Trade Organizations in Politics: Also, Progress and Robbery, An Answer to Henry George"" is a book written by John Bleecker Miller in 1887. The book provides a detailed analysis of trade organizations and their role in politics during the late 19th century. Miller argues that trade organizations, such as labor unions and business associations, have a significant impact on government policies and legislation.In addition to discussing trade organizations, Miller also addresses the concept of progress and its relationship to wealth and poverty. He challenges the ideas put forth by Henry George, a prominent social theorist of the time, arguing that George's proposed solution to poverty and inequality through a single tax on land ownership is flawed.Throughout the book, Miller presents a conservative perspective on politics and economics, advocating for limited government intervention in the free market. He argues that excessive government regulation and taxation can lead to stagnation and economic decline.Overall, ""Trade Organizations in Politics: Also, Progress and Robbery, An Answer to Henry George"" is a thought-provoking work that offers insights into the political and economic debates of the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
