“Utilitarianism had found [in Samuel Smiles' Self-Help] its portrait gallery of heroes, inscribed with a vigorous exhortation to all men to strive in their image; this philistine romanticism established the bourgeois hero-prototype the penniless office-boy who works his way to economic fortune and this wins his way into the mercantile plutocracy.” MenWaySelfHelpingFoundWinningBoysEconomicSelf HelpHeroOfficeFortuneStrivePortraitsGalleryBourgeoisVigorousRomanticismPrototypePhilistinesUtilitarianismPlutocracy Author:John Carroll
“Many of the deficiencies of our economic system could be alleviated if ways were found to broaden the ownership of the means of production... This has happened in some companies through ESOPs.
