Illinois land taxation and constitutional limits analysis
A detailed examination of Illinois tax law from 1819 and 1827, comparing classed land valuation to constitutional provisions, and weighing legislative versus judicial powers. The piece discusses the compact with the United States, nonresident exemptions, and historic legislative approvals through the Council of Revision, arguing the acts may be constitutional given long-standing practice and practical equity for land titles and purchasers.
