The Cost of Something for Nothing is a book written by John Peter Altgeld in 1904. The book is a collection of essays and speeches that Altgeld had delivered during his time as the Governor of Illinois. Altgeld was a prominent figure in the Progressive Era and was known for his advocacy for social justice and reform. In the book, Altgeld discusses the idea that there is no such thing as a free lunch, and that everything has a cost. He argues that society often tries to get something for nothing, whether it be through government programs or individual actions, and that this mentality ultimately leads to negative consequences. Altgeld also addresses issues such as immigration, labor rights, and the role of government in society. He argues that the government should be a force for good, working to ensure that all citizens have access to basic necessities such as education, healthcare, and a living wage. The Cost of Something for Nothing is a thought-provoking book that challenges readers to think critically about the true cost of their actions and the actions of society as a whole. It is a timeless work that remains relevant today, as many of the issues that Altgeld addresses continue to be debated and discussed in modern society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
