Annotation

Capitalist eutopia based on the nationalization of banking and a State Investment program. The author's other works, particularly the later ones, are quite repetitive, often simply reproducing the same words at length. The earliest and most substantial is The Theory of Gratuitous Credit: An Examination of the Principles Governing the Abolition of the Time Element From Exchange. Guildford and Esher, Eng.: Billing and Sons, 1926. It proposes what he calls gratuitous credit where the State Bank would issue credit to the level of each individuals assets.
