Dear god this man is the embodiment of swag
In his Gospel of Wealth, Andrew Carnegie states that the concept of wealth and the economic holdings of the wealthy have progressed to a much greater degree than the holdings of the common people. He says this should be encouraged because it allows for the advancement of civilization. Carnegie asks what the proper way for the wealthy to administer their money to benefit the less fortunate. One solution, which he states he dislikes, is to keep wealth within the family and pass it on through generations. Another solution is a "death tax" in which the government distributes the person's wealth after their death, but this would show the government condemned the "selfish millionaire's unworthy life." Therefore, Carnegie recommended a third option, for the wealthy to use their money for the betterment of society. Through charity and bequeathment they are able to benefit their community practically and economically.
