Let the Government Simplify Taxing Laws and Goods Can be Sold Still Lower Present forms of taxation are as obsolete as Confederate paper money. They bring in much money at a dreadful cost to the great body of people. Fewer forms of taxation, and they direct and positive, would yield revenue and take from business the absolute need for a safety mark-up to meet tax eventual ities. No one thinks for a moment that sane business will be conducted with undue risk of absolute loss or failure. If a business reaches a certain turn-out, the in come tax is a stated percentage and can be figured on. If extra exertion brings larger business the tax expands and only a safety margin of profit otherwise un necessary saves the business from losing nearly all its profits to the tax collector. A manufacturer stopped work in mid- October because to run till end of December would put h!.m in a tax class that would eat up his living.
