In his opening sentence andrew carnegie speaks
of "indiscriminate charity" as "one of the serious
obstacles to the improvement of [the human) race."
what does carnegie mean by this? what was your
first impression of this sentence - that is, to what
extent do you agree with carnegie's assertion? did
your position change by the time you reached the
end of the excerpt? explain.

When talking about indiscriminate charity, Carnegie talks about people's habit of helping people financially who don't want to help themselves. This sentence can marry a feeling of revolt, as we tend to think that no kind of help is indiscriminate.

For Carnegie, philanthropy is serious and should be used to promote social good. He does not believe that giving money to homeless people, for example, is correct, as these people do not want to help themselves and will use this money to feed their addictions.

For him, this is indiscriminate help, which stimulates the problem more than combats it.
