Produktbeschreibung
The Principles of Natural Taxation, written by Charles Bowdoin Fillebrown and published in 1917, is a historical and analytical study of the concept of natural taxation. The book traces the origin and development of the idea of using economic rent as the basis for financing public expenses. It explains how the concept of economic rent, which refers to the surplus value generated by natural resources and land, can be used to finance government activities without burdening the public with taxes.Fillebrown argues that natural taxation is a fair and equitable system of financing public expenses, as it ensures that those who benefit the most from natural resources and land pay their fair share of taxes. The book examines various plans and proposals for implementing natural taxation, including those put forward by Henry George, Thomas Paine, and other prominent thinkers.The author also discusses the economic and social implications of natural taxation, including its potential to promote economic growth, reduce inequality, and improve the living standards of the working class. The book concludes with a call for the adoption of natural taxation as a fundamental principle of public finance.Overall, The Principles of Natural Taxation is a comprehensive and insightful study of an important economic and political concept that continues to be debated and discussed today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
