Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Examination of Some Prevailing Opinions, as to the Pressure of Taxation: In This, and Other Countries There are, perhaps, no opinions more firmly adopted by the vast majority of the British people than those enunciated in the following propositions: - 1.That the amount of the public expenditure constitutes the great evil of the Government of this country, and seriously impedes the progress of the general prosperity. 2. That the public expenditure and consequent taxation of Great Britain is much heavier than that of other large civilized countries. 3. That the British Government is eminently prodigal in its expenditure, when this is compared with the results obtained, or with the expenditure of the Governments of other great and civilized countries for similar purposes. The doctrine contained in these propositions forms the stock in trade of the popular orator., When insisting on them, he is well aware that he is touching a chord which vibrates in the national heart, and does not even attempt to prove that which nobody thinks of denying.
