Excerpt from The Fate of Iciodorum Being the Story of a City Made Rich by TaxationAnd all this magnificence of wealth and power, so important for national ad vertisement, costs little or nothing to the people of the nation: a few sous or'a few francs from each one, the rest is paid by foreigners. Nobody is much the poorer for all the riches of the Anonymous Equitable Associations of the nation, and the few who are so, chie¿y weaklings or persons without enterprise, are negligible quantities in the development of high finance. It is only the doctrinaire who raises his voice against the Octroi. The practical man sees in it the open door to a world of opportunities.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
