QUOTE OF THE WEEK:
“There is in nature no reason for poverty – not even for the poverty of the crippled or the decrepit. For man is by nature a social animal, and the family affections and the social sympathies would, where chronic poverty did not distort and imbrute, amply provide for those who could not provide for themselves.”
-Henry George – Social Problems (1883)
The mission of our school is based on the ideas and writings of American political economist and social reformer, Henry George. His seminal book, Progress and Poverty, is an all-time best seller in economics. His ideas continue to influence political and economic thought and still resonate and remain relevant nearly a century-and-a-half later. Join us at the Henry George School of Social Science to discover what we can do together.
