Q.1: Read the following passage carefully and answer the question that follow in your own
words.
There is a confusion in the minds of many persons, that the gathering of the property of the poor into the hands of the rich does no ultimate harm, since it must be spent at last, and thus, they think. return to the poor again. This fallacy has been again and again exposed; but granting the plea true, the same apology may, of course, be made for blackmail, or any other form of robbery.
It might be though practically it never is) as advantageous for the nation that the robber should have the spending of the money he extorts, as that person robbed should have spent it. But this is no excuse for theft.
If I were to put a turnpike on the road where il passes my own gate, and endeavor to exact a shilling from every passenger, the public would soon do away with my gate, without listening to any pleas on my part that it was advantageous to them, in the end, that I should spend their shillings, as that they themselves should.
But if, instead of outfacing them with a turnpike, I can only persuade them to come in and buy stones, or an old iron, or any other useless thing out of my ground, I may rob them to the same extent, and be, moreover, thanked as a public benefactor and promoter of commercial property.
And this main question for the poor of all countries is wholly omitted in every treatise on the subject of wealth. Even by the labourers themselves, the operation of capital is regarded only on its effect on their immediate interests, never in the far more terrific power of its appointment of the kind and the object of labour.

But if he is paid to destroy food and fresh air, or to produce iron bars instead of them. to his great and final inconvenience.

Neither misery nor folly seems to me any part of the inevitable lot of man. And I am convinced that intelligence, patience, and eloquence can sooner or later, lead the human race out of its self-imposed tortures provided it does not exterminate itself meanwhile.On the basis of this belief.
I have had always a certain degree of optimism. although, as I have grown older, the optimism has grown more sober and the happy issue more distant.
But I remain completely incapable of agreeing with those who accept fatalistically the view that man is born to trouble.
The causes of unhappiness in the past and in the present are not difficult to ascertain. There have been poverty. pestilence, and famine, which were due to man's inadequate mastery of nature.
