Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book contends that the American industrial revolution has progressed through four stages. The first stage is based on the exploitation of immigrant labor and natural resources such as land. In the second stage, America developed new agricultural machinery and tools to increase out…put. The third stage brought the use of the automobile. The fourth and current stage involves the use of technology to improve processes, machinery, and tools, thus increasing production for higher wages. By drawing parallels to the French Revolution, the author suggests that the root cause of both revolutions is that the worker on the land could not earn a decent living from their utmost efforts. The solution, now as it was then, is increased production. The author further contends that the only way to increase production and decrease the cost of goods produced in the U.S. is through better management, tools, machinery, and a workforce willing to work either harder or longer than they are now. The author emphasizes that government and capital can offer little help in decreasing production costs until output increases, and that all parts of the American economy are interdependent. The author argues that greater production is possible under conditions that protect the physical and intellectual well-being of the producer, and that it cannot be obtained through domination of any one element in the economy, or the sudden destruction of the delicate balance of production and distribution, or extravagance in its products. The author believes that a better division of profits must happen, and also that the road to economic stability lies in giving all sections of a community concerned a voice in the administration of production.
