How Sacred Is Money A Glenwood Tax Reflection
A historical note compares net incomes from a 100 acre farm priced at $100 an acre with taxes and upkeep to money income losses. It argues wealth held as money pays far less tax than real estate, noting $728,280 in moneyed wealth taxes at $3,641.40 versus potential real estate taxes of $45,617.60. It cites $300,000 in government bonds with no tax and $286,000 in exempt property, including soldiers and widows, equating exemptions to a $15.60 monthly gift. Overall over $1,000,000 in personal wealth pays just $3,640.
