In a world bursting with progress, why does poverty persist? Henry George's "Progress and Poverty" tackles this paradox head-on, exposing the hidden mechanism that traps millions in hardship even as societies advance. Imagine: magnificent cities rising, innovation blossoming, yet the gap between rich and poor widens. This book delves into the unsettling truth behind land ownership and its impact on economic inequality. Prepare to be challenged, as George proposes a radical solution – a single tax on land value – to unlock true progress for everyone, not just the privileged few.
