Summary

"The Impending Crisis: Conditions Resulting from the Concentration of Wealth in the United States" by Basil A. Bouroff is a detailed study of the huge gap between the rich and the poor in the early 1900s United States. It looks closely at how a few people had most of the money, leaving many others struggling. The book worries about the problems this causes in society, like unfairness and the risk of people rebelling. It starts with a serious warning about how the rich are getting richer while everyone else suffers, and how this could lead to big trouble, like in past revolutions. Bouroff uses facts from the Eleventh Census to show that very few people control almost all the money, making others poor and reliant on them. He believes this can't last and says it might result in chaos when more people feel left out and without a fair chance.
