I have already remarked that the 'theory of scarcity has been a dominating influence in many of our economic policies. In the case of taxation, however, there is involved the 'theory of plenty' and there must now be involved the 'theory of plenty more.'

There must be brought home to the consciousness of all that the more the government takes, the less each one has no one can possibly escape. (en) |
