People receive income by exchanging human resources for WAGES or SALARIES.
Wages are a form of income where a worker is paid a certain amount per hour for each hour of work performed. You might punch a time clock and are paid for the hours and minutes spent on the job. For example, you take a job working at a fast-food restaurant for $10 and hour, and work twenty hours a week. So each week you'd be earning $200 in wages. (That would be your gross income. After taxes and any other deductions are taken out, your net income would be the amount deposited to your bank account.)
Salaried employees are paid an agreed-upon amount each week/month/year. They don't keep track of their hours in precise fashion. They're likely expected to work a full 40-hour work week, and might work added hours if needed to cover the needs of the workplace. For example, the manager of the fast food restaurant where you work for wages might be paid on a salary basis. He or she might come in early or stay late to make sure things are running well, and isn't punching a time clock each time in or out. The manager might be paid a salary of $35,000 annually (for the sake of example in this scenario).

I believe that the correct option is C; the source of the passage is likely to be biased because the author is an example of the people he writes about.
Andrew Carnegie was a businessman native from Scotland, he emigrates to USA when he was a kid and at the early age of 18 he started working from the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, before that he had been working since he was 13 when he arrived United States but in the Railroad Company was where he stand out. At the age of 20 he was already the manager and apprentice of Thomas Scott, the owner of the company. Later he created the Carnegie Steel Company to be more focus on the iron business, he also had bought mines near the Pittsburgh area. That was the beginning of the construction of a big iron empire. Finally the Carnegie Steel Company was sold to JP Morgan in 1901 for $480 million dollars and there is were the philantropist career of Carnegie started.
Even thought he paid the minimun wage during his years as industrial, Andrew invest almost half of his salary in the creation of libraries, schools, universities and a trust fund for the oldest employees.
As a philantropist he donated money to different causes but his favorite was the construction of libraries troughout all America. He also give millons of dollars for the reconstruction of Johnstown Pennsylvania after a flood that he felt responsible for. And finally he build in Manhattan the famous Carnegie Hall.
