On the Causes of and the Remedies for the Distress in the Country
John Wade argues that structural economic failure and political mismanagement fuel widespread distress. He calls for reforms in taxation, distribution of wealth, and reform of the productive classes. The work surveys contemporary Britain and offers policy remedies aimed at social stability and improved governance.
Remedies by Legislation on National Distress and Emigration
The text argues for broad national remedies including special taxation on funded property and other income sources to fund relief, arguing against unequal sacrifices. It advocates a tax on mortgagees and dividends, with international checks on public debt, and outlines emigration policy through Colonial Lands and Immigration measures and Australian land sales to channel population movement.
