What reading level is Working With the People book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The evil and the good therein are alike recognized.
Only Progressive Democracy builds upon the [ 140] Progressive Democracy good and believes in its potential predominance.
To eflfect this it would foster conditions favorable to its development and such as would fujnish incentives to social rather than individual ambi- tion, to helping the neighbor rise in comradeship rather than elevating self through climbing upon the neighbor's shoulders.
The old style politics, whose logical results we see ...in municipal misrule and national and state perversion of public opportunity to private ad- vantage, was based on the weakness of man's nature, his susceptibiUty to ignoble lures. " Wealth covets public privilege to beget more wealth, and is wiUing to buy it underhand, if it can secure it thereby cheaper and quicker than in any honest way. Party strength depends upon the fealty of the camp followers, and offices and *jobs,' used as payment of past or guarantee of future service, fulfil their legitimate purpose." Corruption, on this theory, is inseparable from government, be- cause like the individual it is fallible, and the [141] Working with the People sensible, practical thing, therefore, is to see that corruption does not go to such extremes as to arouse protest and strengthen the opposition, but that its unavoidable use be made to subserve always the party's advantage.
