大卫·李嘉图《政治经济学及赋税原理》· On the Principles of Political Economy and Taxation · 投资
All the effects which are produced on the profits of stock and the wages of labour, by a rise of rent and a rise of necessaries, in the natural progress of society, and increasing difficulty of production, will be produced by a rise of wages in consequence of taxation; and therefore the enjoyments of the labourer, as well as those of his employers, will be curtailed by the tax; and not by this tax particularly, but by any other which should raise an equal amount.

白话
在社会自然发展过程中,地租上涨和必需品涨价会压低利润、影响工资;同样,由税收引起的工资上涨也会产生类似效果。因此,无论哪种税,只要筹到相同金额,都会减少工人和雇主的享受。也就是说,税负最终由劳动者和资本所有者共同承担,而不是只落在某一方。理解这一点,有助于看清税收的普遍影响,而不是被税种名称迷惑。
上下文
李嘉图在讨论税收对利润和工资的普遍影响,强调税负的最终归宿。
今日一问
你是否曾以为某种税只由别人承担,而忽略了它可能影响所有人?
