Carnegie’s Gospel of Wealth

1889 The wealthy had a right to make money, and

a responsibility to spend it properly The Millionaire he argued should be a:

• “trustee for his poorer brethren, bringing to their service his superior wisdom, experience, and ability to administer, doing for them better than would or could for themselves”

Social DarwinismSocial Darwinism• Based on Darwin’s theory of “Survival of the

Fittest”• Biggest proponent of this theory was William

Graham Sumner, Yale professor• “Millionaires are a product of natural selection. They

get high wages and live in luxury, but the bargain is a good one for society.”

• Business world was about struggle and should be free of Gov’t regulation

• Firms led by the “Fittest” would driver their competitors out of business.
