It cannot be measured adequately in yards or in tons, nor as equivalent as so many ounces of gold; its true measure lies only in the contribution it makes to human well-being. Now, when bricks and sand and lime and wood are built up into a house, they constitute a greater aggregate of wealth than they did before; even though their aggregate volume is the same as before; and, if the house is overthrown by an earthquake, there is indeed no destruction of matter; but there is a real destruction of wealth, because the matter is distributed in a manner less conducive to human well-being. Similarly, when wealth is very unevenly distributed, some have more of it than they can turn to any very great account in promoting their own well-being; while many others lack the material conditions of a healthy, clean, vigorous and effective family life. That is to say the wealth is distributed in a manner less conducive to the well-being of mankind than it would be if the rich were somewhat less rich, and the poor were somewhat less poor; and real wealth would be greatly increased, even though there were no change in the aggregate of bricks and houses and clothes and other material things, if only it were possible to effect that change without danger to freedom and to social order"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Income distribution. 650 0 $a Corporations $x Taxation. 650 0 $a Corporations $x Law and legislation. $x Law and legislation. 650 0 $a International business enterprises $x International cooperation. $x International cooperation. 650 0 $a Equality. 650 6 $a Revenu $x Repartition. 650 6 $a Societes $x Impots. 650 6 $a Entreprises multinationales $x Cooperation internationale. $x Cooperation internationale. 650 7 $a Corporations $x Taxation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00879935 650 7 $a Corporations $x Law and legislation. $x Law and legislation. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00879949 650 7 $a Equality. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00914456 650 7 $a Income distribution. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00968670 776 08 $i Online version: $a Beyleveld, Alexander D. $t Taking a common concern approach to economic inequality $d Leiden ; Boston : Brill Nijhoff, [2022] $z 9789004511750 $w (DLC) 2021059524 830 0 $a World Trade Institute advanced studies ; $v v. 6. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20230517011755.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=EC9149EE1DF111EDA8BEF4A423ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
