I agree with your point on increasing employment, but I disagree as to the "interest of society". There is no one interest of society. Even defining prosperity

I agree with your point on increasing employment, but I disagree as to the "interest of society". There is no one interest of society. Even defining prosperity is relative to who is talking. Having the wealthy subsidize the prosperity of the poor is not very prosperous for them.

It's true that society has no particular interest. An ascetic might take issue with increased social prosperity, as would, for entirely different reasons, a workhouse owner.
