  2. ‘The Only American Principle’ “Mr. Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes once said: ‘Taxes are the price we pay for civilized society.’ One sure way to determine the social conscience of a Government is to examine the way taxes are collected and how they are spent. … To divide fairly among the people the obligation to pay for these benefits has been a major part of our struggle to maintain democracy in America. Ever since 1776, that struggle has been between two forces. On the one hand, there has been the vast majority of our citizens who believed that the benefits of democracy should be extended and who were willing to pay their fair share to extend them. On the other hand, there has been a small, but powerful group which has fought the extension of those benefits, because it did not want to pay a fair share of their cost. … Here is my principle: Taxes shall be levied according to ability to pay. That is the only American principle. ” — President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, Oct. 21, 1936 www. allianceforajustsociety .org

  3. “If we have a reasonable and an equitable tax system , then we’re better able to provide basic education for people in this state. Better able to provide needed institutional support for those who require that kind of help. Better able to … discover new and better ways to create success where we have often had failure.” “ Is the price we pay, each of us, for the civilization we enjoy, equitable? I think the answer quite clearly is that it is not. ” www. allianceforajustsociety .org
