About this book
Socialism and American ideals is a book by William Starr Myers. The preface says the essays originally appeared as articles contributed at various times to the daily New York Journal of Commerce and Commercial Bulletin. The book states that “Socialism is politically decadent and contains within itself the germ of self-destruction.” The book also states that “Socialism is essentially unChristian.”
The book says Mr. George Louis Beer rightly claims that “the chief adherents of economic determinism are economists and Socialists, to whom the past is, for the most part, merely a mine for illustrative material.” The book quotes Mr. Kahn as saying: “They possess the fervor of the prophet allied often to the plausibility and cunning of the demagogue.”
