How Shall We Pay for the War Analysis
Edwin R. A. Seligman argues for a balanced tax approach for World War I finance. He critiques tax-only and loan-only extremes, estimates 1.25–1.5 billion in new taxes, favors higher excess-profits taxes, revises income tax to about 34 percent, and preserves essential revenue from whisky, tobacco, and stamps. The plan aims to distribute burdens fairly, deter evasion, and maintain economic elasticity.
