Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into Britain's industrial landscape, exposing the surprising yet undeniable truth: despite the technological advancements of the Industrial Revolution, the nation still grapples with a shortage of essential goods. The author uncovers the disconnect between the country'…s staggering productive capacity and its meager material output. Exploring the lives of Britain's workers, the book highlights the stark reality that only a small fraction of the population engages in direct material production. It delves into the wasteful practices of competitive industries, where countless workers toil to create advertising materials and unnecessary goods. This critique extends to the rampant production of shoddy products, a testament to the prioritization of profit over quality. The author argues that while science and invention have bestowed upon us the means to produce abundance, commercial interests have distorted this potential. They posit that a reimagined "Great State" could harness these advancements to ensure a high minimum standard of living and liberate workers from the drudgery of meaningless labor. Ultimately, this book challenges us to rethink our economic priorities and envision a society where production serves the needs of all, rather than the whims of a profit-driven system. It is a thought-provoking exploration of the underlying causes of poverty and a call for a more equitable distribution of both wealth and work.
