Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is an in-depth examination of the British economy in the 18th century, focusing on the financial policies that fuelled a significant increase in trade and economic growth during a time of international conflict. The author suggests practical alterations to government policies and argues that a single tax system would benefit the nation, as well as expand the nation's trade with other countries. The author's approach is characterized by an analysis of the negative impact that taxes on necessary goods have on the economy, due to the rise in smuggling and corruption that accompanies them. The author concludes by outlining a practical and specific plan for the implementation of a single tax system.
