"From the early times direct taxation had been comparatively light, but indirect taxation had continually become more oppressive and vexatious, and the idea naturally arose and spread that a great improvement would be effected if all these many and iniquitous taxes could be merged in one single and direct tax derived from the very fountain of wealth, namely land: under the pressure of circumstances, this favourite tenet of the French Physiocrats.was put forward in Spain almost a century before it was supported by the physiocrats themselves.". (Palgrave, III, p. 45l) Steps were taken to introduce the single tax under the Enseñada ministry but the plan was afterwards abandoned. Goldsmiths' 13330. Kress S.5166. cfSabin 106282.
