“One of the most insidious consequences of the present burden of personal income tax is that it strips many middle class families of financial reserves & seems to lend support to campaigns for socialized medicine, socialized housing, socialized food, socialized every thing. The personal income tax has made the individual vastly more dependent on the State & more avid for state hand-outs. It has shifted the balance in America from an individual-centered to a State-centered economic & social system.” MadeStatesHandsSeemsAmericaIndividualSocialClassSupportEconomicMiddleBalanceTaxesConsequenceMedicineFinancialBurdenCampaignsIncomeDependentMiddle ClassReservesHousingIncome TaxInsidiousSocial SystemsAvidMiddle Class FamilySocialized Medicine Author:William Henry Chamberlin
“A very good case can be made, on moral as well as economic grounds, for a system in which the individual is required to stand on his own feet, not to lean on the state for handouts. Character, resourcefulness, capacity are formed and developed in struggle with obstacles, not in waiting passively for benefits from outside.” WellsMadeStatesCharacterIndividualWaitingMoralCasesStruggleFeetEconomicBenefitsCapacityVery GoodObstaclesResourcefulnessHandouts Author:William Henry Chamberlin
