The wife of a factory own by Carnegie himself tries to plea to Carneige to raise her husband's wage to be able to make ends meet. |
|
| Mr.Carnegie sir, I was wondering if you could please raise my husband's wages who works at one of your factories. We are really in need of money to pay our taxes and bills. | |
|
| If it is more money that he wants then he will have to work more hours . I don't give raises. The wage they have is the wage they will keep. | |
|

The woman explains him how desperate their sitatution is while Carneige shows little sympathy for her. |
|
| But please! He works long hours and gets only paid for portion of it! We have meet our ends or we could lose our home! | |
|
| Well that is not my problem now is it? I am sucessful and rich. And if he is complainig about his job so much we can just fire him and get someone who will apprieciate it! | |

The woman pleas to keep her husband's job and realizes how cruel and unjust Carneige is. |
|
| You don't care about yor employees or their families. All you care about is that they make you money! | |
|
| Of course! Money is what makes me who I am! Rich and powerful. Why should I carea about them or even more their families? They don't make me money | |
