Public distress over seven million loan terms alarm the nation

A long lament on the March 1779 loan details criticizes the 12 years purchase for a 29 year annuity and the high interest. It flags the dream of a half million yearly tax burden to support seven million capital, condemns ministers, and urges readers to read and tremble at the fiscal burden. The piece also rails against Ministry choices, predicts shortages, and calls for reform.
