Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The truth is that the people of the United States are at the present time dominated and driven by two kinds of officially propagated fear: fear of the Soviet Union and fear of the income tax. These two terrors have been adjusted so as to complement one another and thus to keep the citizen of our free society under the strain of a double pressure from which he finds himself unable to escape -- like the man in the old Western story, who, chased into a narrow ravine by a buffalo, is confronted with a grizzly bear. If we fail to accept the tax, the Russian buffalo will butt and trample us, and if we try to defy the tax, the federal bear will crush us. The 60,000 officials who are appointed to check on us taxpayers are checked on, themselves, it seems, by another group of agents set to watch them. And supplementing these officials -- since private citizens are paid by the Internal Revenue Service to report on other people's delinquencies, and their names of course are never revealed -- there is a whole host of amateur investigators. . . Does this kind of spying and delation differ much in its incitement to treachery from that which is encouraged in the Soviet Union?

Book excerpt: Introduction: This book explores the long history of American taxation during times of war. As political scientist David Mayhew recently observed, since it's founding in 1789, the United States has conducted hot wars for some 38 years, occupied the South militarily for a decade, waged the Cold War for several decades, and staged countless smaller actions against Indian tribes or foreign powers. The cost of these activities has been immense, with important and lasting consequences for the tax system, the economy, and the nation's political structure. By focusing on tax legislation, we hope to identify some of these consequences. But we are not interested in simply recounting statutory details. Rather, we hope to illuminate the politics of war taxation, with a special focus on the influence of arguments concerning "shaped sacrifice" in shaping wartime tax policy. Moreover, we aim to shed light on a less examined aspect of this history by offering a detailed account of wartime opposition to increased taxes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Why have the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq lasted longer than any others in American history? One view is that the move to an all-volunteer force and drones have allowed the wars to continue almost unnoticed for years. Taxing Wars suggests how Americans bear the burden in treasure has also changed, with recent wars financed by debt rather than taxes. This shift has eroded accountability and contributed to the phenomenon of perpetual war"--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The total volume of taxation is certainly related largely to what the taxpayer thinks is worth paying for, and how much he or she is prepared to pay. Both of these items have changed enormously over three and a half centuries, but there is a good deal more to it than that. The growth of taxation has not been regular throughout the period. Patterns in taxation change may be discerned. In particular, wars have always resulted in taxation increases, and when the war is finished taxation never settles down to a level as low as it had been before the war began. This book seeks to understand and explain the reasons for these changing patterns, and should be of interest to the general reader, as well as the historian or economist."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Download or read book Civil War Taxes written by John Martin Davis, Jr. and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2019-07-30 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt:  During the Civil War, both the North and South were challenged by fiscal and monetary needs, but physical differences such as gold reserves, industrialization and the blockade largely predicted the war's outcome from the onset. To raise revenue for the war effort, every possible person, business, activity and property was assessed, but projections and collections were seldom up to expectations, and waste, fraud and ineffectiveness in the administration of the tax systems plagued both sides. This economic history uses forensic examination of actual documents to discover the various taxes that developed from the Civil War, including the direct and poll taxes, which were dropped; the income tax, which stands today; and the war tax, which was effective for only a short time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique volume offers a definitive new history of European economies at war from 1914 to 1918. It studies how European economies mobilised for war, how existing economic institutions stood up under the strain, how economic development influenced outcomes and how wartime experience influenced post-war economic growth. Leading international experts provide the first systematic comparison of economies at war between 1914 and 1918 based on the best available data for Britain, Germany, France, Russia, the USA, Italy, Turkey, Austria-Hungary and the Netherlands. The editors' overview draws some stark lessons about the role of economic development, the importance of markets and the damage done by nationalism and protectionism. A companion volume to the acclaimed The Economics of World War II, this is a major contribution to our understanding of total war.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from War Tax: A Complete Analysis and Explanation of Normal Taxes and Special War Taxes Now Imposed by the Federal Government, Including Tables and Examples, Applied to Corporations, Partnerships, Individuals, Etc On Octobers 3, 1917, Congress enacted the most far-reaching War Tax law ever known to the American people. It became immediately effective. The details of the numerous War Taxes are of interest to every person earning over $1,000 a year, and to every corporation partnership or other concern, and every individual engaged in business. This book tells the taxpayer what the War Taxes are, when, where and how they must be paid, and helps him to solve his own tax problems arising from this legislation and to make the, returns required by the law. Severe penalties fall upon those who, through ignorance or otherwise, fail to make returns in the manner and at the time prescribed by law, and who do not pay promptly the taxes found to be due. It is important to note that the rates given here are the combined taxes of the old and the new laws. No reference need be made to the old revenue law in figuring the taxes now in effect. War Income Tax (Effective from Jan. 1, 1917) On Individuals Every person, a citizen or resident of the United States, who received more than $1000 net income in the preceding calendar year, if unmarried, and more than $2000 if married, must pay income tax. This tax applies to every citizen or resident of the United States as to his or her net income from all sources within and without the United States, and to every non-resident alien as to his or her net income from sources within the United States, including the interest on bonds, notes and other interest-bearing obligations, not specifically exempted. Income Defined Income includes gains, profits and income from salaries, wages or compensation for personal services of every character, or from professions, vocations, businesses, trade, commerce or sales, or dealings in property, real or personal, growing out of the ownership or use of or interest in real or personal property; also from interest, rent, dividends, securities, or the transaction of any business carried on for gain or profit, and income derived from any source whatever. Net income is that which remains after the deductions herein enumerated are made. Normal And Additional Taxes Defined The Income Tax on individuals is divided into two parts, the Normal tax and the Additional or Surtax. Both are computed on the net income for the preceding calendar year ending December 31. The Normal tax is a fixed rate on the net income above the personal exemptions stated above. The Additional or Surtax is a graduated tax on net incomes above $5000. The Rates The Normal tax on an unmarried person's net income is 2 per cent on the amount of income over $1000 and not over $3000, and 4 percent on the amount of income over $3000. The Normal tax on a married person's net income is 2 per cent on the amount of income over $2000 and not over $4000, and 4 per cent on the amount of income over $4000.
