"An Essay Towards Regulating the Trade, and Employing the Poor of this Kingdom" by John Cary is a historical economic treatise written in the early 18th century. The work focuses on the relationship between trade regulation and the welfare of the poor, emphasizing the importance of managing trade to maximize the benefits for the nation. Cary outlines several proposals for improving national wealth through better trade practices whilst addressing the issues faced
by the impoverished segments of society. The opening of the essay introduces Cary's dedication to the improvement of trade and employment in England, suggesting a framework for a more prosperous economy. He argues that regulation of trade is essential to maintaining a favorable balance and ensuring that the nation benefits from its productions and manufactures. Cary details various methods for government intervention, such as creating committees, inspecting trade practices, and supporting domestic industries while providing insights into the economic systems of his time. This foundation sets the stage for his subsequent propositions aimed at alleviating poverty and fostering national wealth. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
