Still less effect is noticeable in the sphere of economic reform. The philosophic teaching is of three Economic . . .
Reform kinds conservative and healthy, progres- sive and chimerical, negative and stupid. Xenophon and Aristotle seem mainly content with the old system, under which the gentry used their wealth in the public interests ; although the former lays considerable stress on the decay of this ideal, which he seems to attri- bute to the rapacity of sycophants and mob-leaders, as well as
... to the irresponsibility of the rich. 1 Plato leaves it to his educated rulers to maintain a state of moderate prosperity, mid-way between poverty and wealth, in the Ideal City ; at the same time he seeks to revolutionize the existing basis of society by refusing private property to the ruling class. 2 The Pythagorean doctrine of communism is well known. The Cynics merely shirked the problem by denying its existence. They espoused pauperism as an essential part of the life according to nature. There is a sweet dignity in the verses of Crates and the discourse of Antisthenes, decrying temporal needs ; but the needs were real and manifest.
