关于万能的美元

It is also true that, in the Southern states, men lived on the labor of slaves, but slave labor did not make them fortunes; what made slavery in the South all the more inexcusable was that,in addition to being morally wicked, it didn't even pay off handsomely.

  Thanks to the natural resources of the country, every American, until quite recently, could reasonably look forward to making more money than his father, so that, if he made less,the fault must be his; he was either lazy or inefficient. What an American values, therefore, is not the possession of money as such, but his power to make it as a proof of his manhood;once he has proved himself by making it, it has served its function and can be lost or given away. In no society in history have rich men given away so large a part of their fortunes. A poor American feels guilty at being poor, but less guilty than an American rentier who has inherited wealth but is doing nothing to increase it; what can the latter do but take to drink and psychoanalysis?

政治和科技发展迅速消灭所有的文化差异,这是可能的,在不遥远的未来,这将是无法区分在一个地球的这些在任何其他生物的表面积活人,但我们不同的过去有尚未完全擦除和。文化差异仍然明显。之间的美国和欧洲的最显着的区别是对金钱的态度不同。每一个欧洲知道,作为一个历史事实,即在欧洲,财富只能在其他人的代价收购了问题,可以通过征服他们或利用在工厂劳动。此外,即使在工业革命开始以来,多少人谁可以从贫穷走向富裕是增加小:大多数人想当然地认为他们应该not.be丰富得多,也不比他们的父辈更穷。结果,没有欧洲联营公司与个人价值与个人的失败或贫穷的财富。

在美国,财富还收购了盗窃,但真正被剥削的受害者不是一个人,但贫穷和她的母亲地球无情地掠夺了谁的生物。诚然,印第安人被没收,但是这并不像它一直在欧洲,一个theconqueror matter抓住征服财富,为印度从来没有意识到他的国家potential财富。这也是事实,在南方各州,人们生活在奴隶劳动,但奴隶劳工并没有使他们的财富,是什么让南方的奴隶制度,更不可原谅的是,除了是道德上邪恶的,它didn '吨甚至回报丰厚。

直到最近,由于不少国家的天然资源,每一个美国人,可以合理地期待着比他的父亲,所以,如果少了他,一定是他的错,他要么懒惰或低效更多的钱。什么是美国的价值观,因此,不是金钱,而是他的权力,使其作为一个拥有他的男子汉气概证明,一旦他已证明了它自己制造,它已达到了它的功能,可丢失或送出。在历史上还没有社会有这么大的断送其命运的一部分富人。一个可怜的美国感到内疚贫穷,但低于美国食利者谁继承的财富,但没有采取行动,增加其有罪,有什么可以做,但后者采取的饮料和精神?
