The Reform of Local Taxation is a book written by David Ames Wells and originally published in 1876. The book discusses the issue of local taxation in the United States and proposes reforms to improve the system. Wells argues that the current system is inefficient, unfair, and burdensome on taxpayers, particularly those with lower incomes. He suggests a shift towards a more equitable and efficient system of taxation, including the use of property taxes and the elimination of certain taxes on goods and services. The book also explores the history of local taxation in the United States and provides examples of successful reforms implemented in other countries. Overall, The Reform of Local Taxation is a comprehensive analysis of the problems with the current system and a proposal for a more just and effective approach to local taxation.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
