'La seule manière de disposer de l’excédent de richesse, concentré dans les mains d’hommes prévoyants et sérieux, est de le dépenser annuellement pour le bien général'Andrew Carnegie n’était pas uniquement un homme d’affaires ingénieux. Il était aussi un milliardaire philanthrope, et comme si cela ne suffisait pas, un écrivain de talent. L’Évangile de la Richesse reste à ce jour L’un de ses textes les plus remarquables. C’est ici que pour la première fois, il exposa ses idées sur les devoirs, à la fois moraux et sociétaux, qui incombent aux plus riches. Il est même question dans les pages qui suivent d’une véritable philosophie de la philanthropie, la judicieuse redistribution des richesses étant pour lui l’un des moteurs de l’évolution humaine. À titre d’exemple, il faudrait ainsi taxer les héritages, mettre en place des impôts progressifs et renoncer à l’assistanat.Il ne fait nul doute qu’à l’heure où les écarts de richesse dans nos sociétés n’ont jamais été aussi importants, que les écrits de Mr Carnegie susciteront une attention singulière auprès du lecteur contemporain.
