Synopsis
The Proposal, Commonly Called Sir Matthew Decker's Scheme: For One General Tax Upon Houses, Laid Open is a historical book written by Joseph Massie and originally published in 1757. The book is an analysis and critique of a tax proposal put forth by Sir Matthew Decker, a prominent economist and politician of the time. Decker's proposal was to replace all existing taxes with a single tax on houses, which he believed would simplify the tax system and make it more equitable.Massie's book examines Decker's proposal in detail, analyzing its potential benefits and drawbacks. He argues that while the proposal may seem simple and fair on the surface, it would actually be quite complex to implement and could lead to unintended consequences. Massie also critiques Decker's assumptions about the nature of property ownership and taxation, and suggests alternative approaches to tax reform.Overall, The Proposal, Commonly Called Sir Matthew Decker's Scheme: For One General Tax Upon Houses, Laid Open provides valuable insights into the debates and discussions surrounding tax policy in the 18th century. It is a valuable resource for historians, economists, and anyone interested in the history of taxation and public finance.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
