Synopsis

This book details the varied sources of the nation's revenue, and the effects upon both the nation and its citizens of the various taxation methods currently in force. Knowledge upon these points is of great importance, especially considering that we are all tax payers, either directly or indirectly. By our votes or influence we have to take our part in choosing those who manage the affairs of the nation. If that choice is to be intelligent, some knowledge of general principles and of our present system of taxation is imperative. It may also be of use to those who are seeking some such guide, either in connection with private studies or for the requirements of institutions and higher educational centres. If it is not too much to hope that someday the elements of public finance may be thought a subject for schools, this book may prove, with the comments of the teacher, a means of conveying that knowledge without technicality and wearisome detail.
