The Permanent Tax Revolt
Submitted by Christopher Lempa on Thu, 2008-03-27 17:00
?Isaac William Martin advances the provocative new argument that the property tax revolt was not a conservative backlash against big government, but instead a defensive movement for government protection from the market. The tax privilege that the tax rebels were defending was in fact one of the largest government social programs in the postwar era.? This could be an interesting book.
