The Populist Party, founded in the 1890s in the United States, initially sought to address the economic struggles of farmers and laborers. It advocated for reforms such as the regulation of railroads, the establishment of a graduated income tax, and the free coinage of silver to increase money supply. The party aimed to reduce the power of corporate interests and improve the financial conditions of the working class. Ultimately, it sought to create a more equitable society through political and economic reforms.
