Fallacies
1o
Ch. 3. Job-denouncers cry
§.1. Exposition
1
J.B. will not mention an instance of contract free from Job,
because of the still undiminished force of the I
- fallacies — which will have been mentioned before
Job is a name The sort of transaction to which the designation of
the word job is one not to be applied is one in
which by the authority of government money or
moneys worth is put into the hands of some individual
or assemblage of individuals.
The intimation it is employed to convey is
that in the first concoction original design or at any
rate in the progress of the transaction the general interest of the
public whole community has been sacrificed
to the that interest of that particular part.
That transactions of this to which the appellation
may in this sense be applied with justice, have
existed and still continue to exist in no small abundance is not to be doubted
They Such transactions will continue To a more or less considerable amount
transactions of this description will continue to have
place and come successively into existence, until so
long as the business of manner of conducting government shall continue to
fall short of perfection in this line.
