Business

by Ambrose Bierce

Ambrose Bierce's "Business" is a collection of satirical poems that explore the darker side of the business world. Bierce skewers the greed, corruption, and hypocrisy that he sees in the business community, and his poems offer a sharp critique of the capitalist system. Bierce's poems are often funny, but they are also deeply cynical, and they offer a scathing indictment of the values that drive the business world.
