A. the great concentration of wealth.

In his plan to "Share the Wealth", Long is referencing the great concentration of wealth as a cause of the Great Depression. His plan aims to redistribute the wealth by taxing the wealthy and distributing the funds to provide economic security and opportunity for all citizens. Long believed that the concentration of wealth in the hands of a few individuals and corporations contributed to the economic inequality and instability that led to the Great Depression.
