Chapter 6 - The Nationalization
of the Land -
From Poverty by James Platt
This chapter starts
by putting that the various legislation aimed at helping the lot
of the poor was little more than experimentation. Acts viewed by
current day thinking as significant advancement in rights for the
under priviledged, such as the Poor Laws. It tells us that many
of the Acts of Parliament had been wholly or partially repealed
in short order. Then Platt introduces the "Nationalization
of the Land," quite a new idea, and explains to us the ramifications
of such far reaching Socialist thinking.
