Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Mischiefs of the Malt Tax: And Reasons for Its Total and Immediate Repeal, and How It May Be Effected
Upon the Chancellor of the Exchequer devolves the duty of proposing taxes sufficient for the support and safety of our country. It is a sacred duty he has to perform; and I believe every subject of the realm, from the peer to the peasant, willingly submits, and cheerqy pays, with a ready heart and free hand, any and every tax excepting one. And which is that? Why, the Malt Tax! Which is both unjust and unfair.
