Excerpt from The Labouring Classes
The middle class is always a firm champion of equality. When it concerns humbling a class above it; but it is its inveterate foe, when it concerns ele rating a class below it. Manfully have the British Commoners struggled against the old feudal aristocracy, and so successfully that they now consti tute the dominant power in the state. To their struggles against the throne and the nobility is the English nation indebted for the liberty it so loudly boasts, and which, during the last half of the last century, so enraptured the friends of Humanity throughout Europe.

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book contends that societies have historically developed systems of extreme inequality between workers and their employers. The author's historical analysis begins with the premise that these systems have been intentionally engineered by the priestly class through manipulation of the idea of divine retribution, leading to the enslavement of most people. According to the book, these systems continue to damage societies across the world to this day by preventing a fair and just distribution of the fruits of labor. The author argues that no true reform can be successful without a fundamental restructuring of hierarchical social arrangements and a return to treating people as equals under both God and the law.
