Taxation
Read the text and make sure you know all the taxes mentioned here
During the 19th century the prevalent idea was that taxes should serve mainly to finance the government. In earlier times, and again today, governments have utilized taxation for other than merely fiscal purposes. One useful way to view the purpose of taxation, attributable to the American economist Richard A. Musgrave, is to distinguish between objectives of resource allocation , income redistribution, and economic stability.
Patterns of taxation throughout history can be explained largely by administrative considerations.
Taxes played a relatively minor role in the ancient world. Taxes on consumption were levied in Greece and Rome. Tariffs - taxes on imported goods - were often of considerably more importance than internal excises so far as the production of revenue went. As a means of raising additional funds in time of war, taxes on property would be temporarily imposed. For a long time these taxes were confined to real property, but later they were extended to other assets. Real estate transactions also were taxed. In Greece free citizens had different tax obligations from slaves, and in Rome the tax laws distinguished between nationals and residents of conquered territories.
In the Middle Ages many of these ancient taxes, especially among the direct levies, vanished and gave way to a variety of obligatory services and a system of "aids" (most of which amounted to gifts). The main indirect taxes were transit duties and market fees. In the cities, the concept developed of a tax obligation encompassing all residents: the burden of taxes on certain foods and beverages was intended to be borne partly by consumers and partly by producers and tradesmen. During the latter part of the Middle Ages, some German and Italian cities introduced several direct taxes: head taxes for the poor and net worth or occasionally crude income taxes for the rich. (The income tax was administered through self-assessment and an oath taken before a civic commission.) The use of land taxes and taxes on houses gradually spread.
Wars have influenced taxes. Many taxes, notably (the income tax (first introduced in England in 1799) and the turnover or purchase tax (Germany, 1918; Great Britain, 1940) began as "temporary" war measures. Similarly, the withholding method of income tax collection began as a wartime innovation in France, the United States, and Britain. World War 11 converted the income taxes of many nations from upper-class taxes to mass taxes.
It is hardly necessary to mention the role that tax questions play in peacetime politics. Arguments for tax reform, particularly in the area of income taxes, are perennially at issue in the domestic politics of many countries.
The power to tax now generally resides in parliamentary bodies. The level of most taxes has risen substantially and so has the ratio of tax revenues to the national income. Taxes today are collected in money, not in goods. Taxes are assessed and collected by civil servants. There has been a reduction in reliance on customs duties and excises. Many countries increasingly rely on sales taxes and other general consumption taxes. An important late 20th-century development has been the replacement of turnover taxes with value-added taxes. Taxes on the privilege of doing business and on real property have lost ground and are important today mainly as revenue sources for local communities. The absolute and relative weight of direct personal taxation has been growing in most of the developed countries, and increasing attention has been focused on payroll and value-added taxes.
Income taxation, both of individuals and of corporations, payroll taxes, general sales taxes, and (in some countries) property taxes occupy leading positions in modern tax systems. The income tax has ceased to be a rich man's tax; it is now paid by the general populace, and in several countries it is complemented by a tax on net worth. The emphasis on the ability-to-pay principle and on the redistribution of wealth, which led to graduated rates, especially in the case of income taxes, appears to have peaked and been replaced by greater concern for the economic distortions and disincentives caused by high tax rates. A good deal of fiscal centralization has occurred, as reflected in the kinds of taxes levied by central governments. The latter now control the most important taxes (from a revenue-producing point of view): income and corporation taxes, payroll taxes, and value-added taxes. Various ways have been found to allow lower-level governments to share in the tax revenues of central governments.
