Synopsis

This book delves into society's fundamental concerns with income and its just distribution. It seeks to determine which incomes are earned and which are unearned, establishing a standard that differentiates between them. The author offers a framework for economic democracy, arguing that this essential component of a fair and equitable society ensures that unearned income is minimized and privileges are not extended to unproductive members. Their conclusions encourage a broader discussion about how to most fairly organize our society's economic system, promoting dialogue about the ethics of various income streams and the potential for greater equality within our financial structures.
