Book excerpt: Excerpt from Homes for Workers, Vol. 3: Housing Division The most pressing problem facing the people of the United States, for which no final solution has as yet been demonstrated, is that of housing low income groups. How great is the need? The United States Senate answers, reporting that new dwelling units must be built by 1945. That requires an average construction of new houses and apartments each year for the next 10 years. What is being done? The Bureau of Labor Statistics says that in 257 typical cities surveyed only new homes were built in 1934. In the more normal year of 1925 only homes were completed in these cities. Therefore, even if the private construction industry comes back to pre-depression full strength, it will be able to meet less than half of the need.

It is universal and permanent, - to the extent, at least, that our economic system is universal and permanent. The sooner we in the United States recognize these facts, as most thinking people in the rest of the civilized world have already done, the sooner we Shall find a remedy. For of course there is one, if we choose to pay the price for it. NO situation which is producing disease and crime faster than our remedial agencies can cure them is a necessity. As a matter of fact, other nations have found remedies and are putting them into effect. It cannot be done in a day. It cannot be done without sacrifice. But the progress in some countries has been remarkable. We may not like their remedies. But in that case, it would seem to be up to us to devise better ones. No such simple remedy as raising wages will solve the problem. If the group involved were a small one. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis In Defense of Housing by : Peter Marcuse
Download or read book In Defense of Housing written by Peter Marcuse and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2024-08-27 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In every major city in the world there is a housing crisis. How did this happen and what can we do about it? Everyone needs and deserves housing. But today our homes are being transformed into commodities, making the inequalities of the city ever more acute. Profit has become more important than social need. The poor are forced to pay more for worse housing. Communities are faced with the violence of displacement and gentrification. And the benefits of decent housing are only available for those who can afford it. In Defense of Housing is the definitive statement on this crisis from leading urban planner Peter Marcuse and sociologist David Madden. They look at the causes and consequences of the housing problem and detail the need for progressive alternatives. The housing crisis cannot be solved by minor policy shifts, they argue. Rather, the housing crisis has deep political and economic roots—and therefore requires a radical response.

Book Synopsis The Making of the Slave Class by : Jerry Carrier
Download or read book The Making of the Slave Class written by Jerry Carrier and published by Algora Publishing. This book was released on 2010 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Not that long ago, the head of the Mormon Church summarized what many Americans believe or at least subconsciously accept when he said, "There is a reason why one man is born white rich and with many blessings and another is born black with very few, God has determined each man's proper reward." And while he was widely and deservedly criticized for his remarks, it wasn't because a majority does not believe his views, but rather that they deemed him politically incorrect for bringing race into the question and for saying aloud what many think quietly and keep to themselves. Class is America's forbidden thought. Class and culture rigidly control who we are, who we associate with, and how much money we can earn. American class culture determines who will prosper and who will fail. The Making of the Slave Class is a book about this culture and the debilitating consequences that make the American slave class. Written for a general audience, this book is the first historical and cultural analysis of the American class system and the poverty created by it. It could be easily categorized as a work of sociology, history, anthropology or economics. The book analyzes class through all these disciplines. The American class system is a topic that has not received a great deal of attention from American writers. There are no comprehensive books on the subject that analyze class and poverty from cultural, economic and historic perspectives. This book does the job. Among the few books on the subject are such works as Bobos in Paradise by David Brooks and Class by Paul Fussell, both of which make fun of, belittle and attempt to make literary class war upon the working class in their books. This book fires back.
