Despairing Advice on Population and Production
The speaker rejects cutting production and urges a larger native consumer base. He argues for more people like Americans who will buy goods rather than rely on foreign markets. Critics warn more population could hurt jobs and wages, challenging the feasibility of the plan.
Wages Compare Across Nations and Population Growth
The excerpt contrasts U S wage levels with early population figures, noting a New England mechanic earning a dollar daily, a president lamenting $100 yearly salaries, and Mexico and Canada paying far less for skilled labor. It urges increased population growth and references a hummingbird's migration as a global mobility metaphor.
