To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


Cost of administration would include the carrying on of industry in general, and be defrayed out of re- ceipts from rental of buildings, from profits upon com- modities which the collectivity would both produce, and 58 distribute, from charges for transportation, and from the revenues for other service supplied to the people. The co-operative commonwealth then becomes the remedy for the inequalities of the existing system of taxation. There is no other solution of the problem.
SOCIETY. VIII. LA
...BOR.
The labor problem has met with but little consid- eration in the past, the result probably of a realization that nothing of moment could be done towards secur- ing to the laborer continuous employment and a fair remuneration for his toil m a competitive state of society.
The labor problem, however, occupies an inter-re- lated position to other public questions, and because of this it has acquired a new significance, and has been forced into the political arena for final adjudication.
Under existing conditions it becomes impossible for the wage earners collectively to obtain either shorter hours or fitting remuneration for their labor, not to speak of the uncertainty of either obtaining or retain- ing employment, because, under competitive methods of industry, the price of labor, like the price of com- modities, is regulated by the law of supply and de- mand, and, while the over-stocked labor market con- tinues to be augmented by the men thrown out j)f em- ployment by labor-saving machinery, by foreign im- migration, and by the natural increase in population and no doubt there will continue to be an over-supply from these sources in the immediate future as in the 59 60 past there is no reasonable ground for hope of a per- manent rise in the price of labor, or that laborers as a class will ever become independent enough to suc- cessfully agitate for a shorter working day.
