An eye-opening history of taxation showing that battles over taxes have always really been battles over democracy itself \n Americans have always fought over the meaning of freedom and equality. What is not commonly recognized is that these battles, from the framing of the Constitution to the decades-long backlash to the civil rights movement, have largely revolved around one issue--taxes. \n \n In The Price of Democracy, Vanessa S. Williamson challenges the myth that Americans are instinctively anti-tax, revealing that fights over taxes have always been proxies for deeper conflicts over who is included in We the People. Poorer people have repeatedly built movements that sought to tax all Americans to create a more equal and democratic nation. Wealthy people have responded by constraining the power to tax and stifling democracy through voting restrictions, gerrymandering, and violence. Yet as hard as anti-tax crusaders have fought to create an America that redistributes not from rich to poor, but from non-white people to rich white people, the battle rages on. \n \nThe Price of Democracy uncovers how fights for fiscal fairness have defined American history, delivering a powerful message to the present: that taxes are the public's most powerful weapon in the fight for a real democracy.\n
