"The issue of taxation has been a fundamental part of our national discourse since the colonial era. From the dawn of our nation during a revolt against British taxes, to the current tax plans proposed by our presidential candidates, the discussion over national taxes has been a crucial part of our political system. Taxation is the one issue that truly affects each and every individual in our country, from the billionaire Internet magnate to the first-grader buying a stick of gum at the local five and dime."More papers on A Taxing Proposition:
