LAD # 17- Gospel of Wealth

In Carnegie's Gospel of Wealth, he claims that the uneven distribution of wealth that is present when he wrote the essay is important, and that it is better than the economic situation of older societies. He continues on to describe the philanthropic responsibilities of the self made "rich man." Carnegie writes that the wealthy should share their money with the community to help the public and believes that uneven distribution is beneficial for the people of the United States, and in a sense, superior to Communism.
