Today's word: —and nobody else. This financial paper notes that President Truman recently suggested that the tax Joad to be taken off “people” and put on corporations and that a labor economist has suggested that the government tax “wealth” and use the money to pay a subsidy to cut the cost of food for “people.” This, the Wall Street Journal concludes, is pure bunk. N\ The Commerce Departmfent has just reported that the total tax take of Federal, State and local gov- ernments‘in the past fiscal year amounted to $52,- €00,000,000 or $362 for every man in the country. For a family of four that, if equally divided, would mean $1,448. The average worker look- year's tax bill will realize that he isn't paying nearly that much and will conclude that the balance of his share is being paid by other people and by “things” (corporations and real estate). This is fallacious reasoning of the first water, and high government officials and so-called responsi- ing at his la ble economists are rendering no public service when | they skip over the real import of “hidden” taxes. Who can figure out how much taxes add to the cost of a | suit of clothes, a pair of shoes or a bottle of milk? Or the rent of a four-room bungalow. What differ- ence does a few more billions for social security make so long as the extra is paid for by corporation levies and not by people? No matter how you cover it up or try to hide it, it's “people” who pay taxes and not “things." The taxes that the little man does not pay directly (ni income tax), sales tax, cigarette taxes, etc.) he pays indirectly on every item of food and merchandise he buys—on every streetcar ride he takes, on every public utility he uses. It's “people” and nobody else who pay for every penny they let their government spend. The Wall Street Journal notes in its comment on this erroneous reasoning abou ttaxes that the sale of aspirin is increasing and concludes with the ob- servation: “You can buy a lot of headache for $362.” | womdan and child | fied.
