Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Single Tax Movement in the United States More than a generation has now elapsed since Henry George published Progress and Poverty, but hardly any effort has been made to describe the single tax movement or to appraise its significance. Substantially all of the literature devoted to the single tax question has been purely controversial. In the present volume the writer has undertaken to give a complete historical account of the single tax movement in the United States, together with a discussion of the tactics of the single taxers, their program, the present status of the movement, and its influence upon economic thought and upon fiscal and social reform. A brief introductory survey of the chief anticipations of Henry George's doctrines is presented in order to show the place of the movement in the history of economic thought. Then is traced the formulation of George's economic ideas in the light of the economic environment amid which he spent the formative years of his life, the California of the two decades following the gold discovery of 1848. Next follows a description of the reception of Progress and Poverty in the eighties and of Henry George's activities in the spreading of his gospel. Succeeding chapters describe the development of the single tax movement through the recent political campaigns undertaken with the aid of the Joseph Fels endowment. Finally there is a consideration of some general aspects of the movement, and an appraisal of its significance. Collection of the material upon which this study is based has involved research in several parts of the country.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Single Tax Year Book: The History, Principles and Applicaton of the Single Tax Philosophy One of the purpose of this work has been to provide a handy source of information as to the progress of the Single Tax movement in all countries where its teachings have found a lodgment - and these include nearly every country on the habitable globe. We have not dwelt as fully as we might on the history of the movement in this country. Prof. Arthur N. Young, in his admirable History of the Single Tax Movement in the United States, has told the story in extenso, with sympathy and discrimination, yet with judicial impartiality. But we have included accounts of material episodes in the history of the movement, and of such limited applications of the principle as mark its progress during the last two decades. So far as practicable controversial matter has been excluded. While of necessity much has been said of matters still in dispute, the aim has been rather to include as many of the agreements as could be found, for, after all, while controversy is essential in order to arrive at correct conclusions, it is along the line of our agreements that we advance. We have refrained from quoting extensively from the writings of Henry George - these may more profitably be consulted in the original sources. We have considered the Year Book rather as a supplement to the writings and the work of Henry George than as in any sense a compendium thereof. If to any inquiring reader we have suggested the desirability of a closer acquaintance with the great liberalizing philosophy of the foremost economic thinker of all time, it is as much as we could hope to achieve in a work of the present limits and character.

Download or read book The Single Tax Review written by Schuyler Arnold and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-20 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Single Tax Review: A Record of the Progress of Single Tax and Tax Reform Throughout the World; The Present Programme and Status of the Single Tax Reform; (Continued) The proposals fall into two groups; those that aim to exempt personal property and those that aim to exempt improvements on land. The reasons for permitting local option are, in general: (1) to assist in equalizing the tax burden as distributed under the existing system; (2) to allow the locality to cope with its own social and economic problems, and (3) to make an Opportunity for the easier introduction of tax reformation. The equal distribution of our present system is claimed to be more ap parent than real because our tax assessors do not strictly enforce our general tax laws, thereby exercising an unsanctioned local Option power and creating injustices of burden by this extra-legal method. According to them, a strictly enforced uniform system is bound to work an injustice, and to get around this the local assessors neglect to enforce the law strictly and bring about an unsanctioned local option. A good illustration of this is seen in the Wisconsin 1910 assessment of moneys and credits, and non-checking deposits.

Download or read book Taxation in American States and Cities Classic Reprint written by Richard T. Ely and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 582 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Taxation in American States and Cities The present volume is not intended primarily for specialists, but for American citizens generally who are intelligent enough to appreciate the vast importance of the topic with which it deals. It is meant to be a popular work, but, it is hoped, in the better sense of the word. I have endeavored to keep the essential facts in mind, and to avoid all technical details which are not essential to an understanding of the main issues. The work is larger than I thought it would be as it is; and had I written an exhaustive treatise, such as I would have tried to write had my book been designed primarily for lawyers or political economists, it would have been necessary to publish four or five volumes instead of one. The specialist will then understand why much has been omitted which he would gladly have seen inserted. Perhaps the general reader will obtain an idea of the largeness of the subject of taxation in states and cities, when told that the bill itself presented by the Maryland Tax Commission to the legislature covered one hundred and twenty-one printed octavo pages. An adequate explanation of all parts of the bill would have required at least as many additional pages. A study of taxation is calculated to give one a rather pessimistic view of American laws, American institutions, and American character.
