In the lecture, the speaker maintains that use of federal income tax was not as beneficial as stated in the reading.
First, the lecturer describes that the federal income tax was unnecessary for covering of the war. That is because less than 3 percents of tax were used for war expenses while higher tariffs and spending on alcohol or cigarettes were highly supported the costs of war. This point directly opposes the reading passage's assertion that income tax was successful on supporting army and Civil War.
Second, federal income tax was unfair treatment for certain people. Rich people were complained of paying more taxes than those who earn small salaries. Since income tax was collected proportionally to yearly salaries, it was deemed as biased and discriminated punishment for rich. Thus, this suggestion that the lecturer mentions fully contradicts the reading passage's claim that those taxes were based on ability on earing and paying; thus, it was fair system.
Last, according to the lecture, tax gave too much power for government to control Americans lives. That is, although people pay what they can offer, government urged them to pay more while using all money for themselves. The lecturer then counters the reading passage's explanation that government was able to handle laws and power that led to fight during the war.
In summary, The lecturer describes overall disadvantages of income tax had on Americans' lives while opposing opinions made in the reading. |
