""Problems of Poverty"" is a book written by John A. Hobson that delves into the issue of poverty and its causes. The book explores the economic and social factors that contribute to poverty, including unequal distribution of wealth, lack of education and employment opportunities, and the impact of industrialization on society. Hobson argues that poverty is not simply a result of individual shortcomings, but rather a systemic problem that requires collective action to address. Throughout the book, Hobson provides both historical and contemporary examples to support his arguments and offers potential solutions for combating poverty. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in understanding the complexities of poverty and its impact on society.The first condition of ""sweating"" is an abundant and excessive supply of low-skilled and inefficient labour. It needs no parade of economic reasoning to show that where there are more persons willing to do a particular kind of work than are required, the wages for that work, if free competition is permitted, cannot be more than what is just sufficient to induce the required number to accept the work. In other words, where there exists any quantity of unemployed competitors for low-skilled work, wages, hours of labour, and other conditions of employment are so regulated, as to present an attraction which just outweighs the alternatives open to the unemployed, viz. odd jobs, stealing, starving, and the poor-house.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
