Аннотация

In the wonderful world the Greks had given us
. . . unemployment was rising, but no one cared about that. Soon the Grek machines would take over all labor and nobody would need to work. People were hungry, but they tightened their belts and waited for the Greks' advanced method of fertilization to produce enough food for all.
A few people were beginning to look with horror at the new Grek-made world. They saw how the Greks' promises had destroyed ambition and incentive. They saw Earthmen, with their eyes fixed on the future, refusing to work enough to supply the needs of the present.
These doubting few banded together to resist the Greks' scheme of conquest by generosity. But they knew that even a united Earth would have a hard ,time fighting the advanced technology of the Greks. What chance was there for a handful of people, with no army and no weapons?
