Publisher's Synopsis
""A Plan To Prevent All Charitable Donations For The Benefit Of Poor Persons, In The Several Parishes Of England And Wales"" is a book written by William Beckwith in 1807. The book presents a controversial proposal to eliminate all charitable donations for the benefit of poor people in England and Wales. Beckwith argues that such donations only encourage laziness and dependency among the poor, and that the government should be responsible for providing for their needs. The book outlines a detailed plan for how this could be achieved, including the establishment of workhouses and other institutions to provide for the poor. The book was highly controversial at the time of its publication, and sparked a heated debate about the best way to address poverty in England and Wales. Despite its controversial nature, the book remains an important historical document, providing valuable insights into the social and political attitudes of the time.From Loss, Embezzlement, Non-Application, Misapplication, Fraud, And Abuse In Future.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
