Opis

Excerpt from The Nature and First Principle of Taxation The writer is indebted to Professor Edwin Cannan for many suggestions and criticisms, mainly embodied here as improvements upon the original plan. The term "quasi-taxes" as used in this book, was one such suggestion: the phrase originally used was "mixed taxes." Taxation is a subject not usually associated with the lighter or more cheerful thoughts of men. Bright exceptions there are, such as Sydney Smith's lively description of the career of the schoolboy who ** whips his taxed top," who rides, as a youth, on a taxed horse with a taxed bridle along a taxed road, who dies at last, in a bed taxed 22 per cent., after taking his last drop of medicine, taxed 7 per cent., in a spoon that has paid 15 per cent.; "his virtues are handed down to posterity upon taxed marble; and he is then gathered to his fathers, - to be taxed no more." The jest is somewhat grim. There is a lighter touch in a Bluebook upon Taxation, to be cited as C. 9528, 1899, where I find on page 171 the following answer to the question as to what would be the effects of excusing tenants from paying their rates.
