Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book revisits a 1920 proposal to compensate soldiers with a bonus for their service during World War 1. The proposal was a substantial one, with an estimated cost of several billion dollars. The author, the then Secretary of the Treasury, provides a detailed analysis of the proposal, outlining its potential benefits and consequences. Exploring the complexities of taxation, the book evaluates the effectiveness of various taxes, including income tax, sales tax, and corporate tax. The author delves into the impact of these taxes on different segments of society, highlighting their potential regressivity and the need for equitable distribution of the tax burden. Through its exploration of taxation and the implications of the proposed bonus, this book sheds light on the enduring challenges of funding government programs, the importance of progressive taxation, and the need to balance the interests of different societal groups. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
