How The Public Are Plundered: By Promoters Of Companies, Foreign States, Syndicates, And Moneylenders (1878)

""How The Public Are Plundered"" is a book written by Axford Packer in 1878 that explores the ways in which the general public is exploited and taken advantage of by various entities such as company promoters, foreign states, syndicates, and moneylenders. The book delves into the tactics used by these groups to lure people into investing their money or resources, only to ultimately leave them with little to no returns. Packer's writing is critical of the practices employed by these entities and seeks to expose the ways in which they operate to the detriment of the public. This book provides a historical perspective on financial exploitation and is relevant today as similar issues still persist in modern times.With Directions How Safe Investments May Be Made At Moderate Interest.
