The working class frequently faced economic hardship, while the wealthy, often the Captains of Industry, managed to successfully escape taxes and other economic burden (Doc A).
Taxation was a large obstacle for the working/lower class, while the upper class was able to get around these obstacles just by the viewpoint of most people that they were economically superior (Doc A).
Big Business and its leaders often evaded taxes and government regulation through intimidation of the government and the public. Their power and size allowed them access through loopholes in the system, further fueling this cycle (Doc Casey).
In this era, corruption and graft were aloof. The common man, who makes struggles to make a living from day to day is forced to pay for the taxes and services of everyday life, while wealthy upper class citizens are able to avoid taxation, demonstrating the corruption between big business and government (D0c A)
