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
If taxes press unequally on the farmer, he will be enabled to raise the price of raw produce, to place himself on a level with those who carry on other trades; but a tax on wages, which would not affect him more than it would affect any other trade, could not be removed or compensated by a high price of raw produce; for, the same reason which should induce him to raise the price of corn, namely, to remunerate himself for the tax, would induce the clothier to raise the price of cloth, the shoemaker, hatter, and upholsterer, to raise the price of shoes, hats, and furniture.

白话
如果税收对农民特别不公平,他可以通过提高农产品价格来与其他行业拉平。但如果是对工资征税,且对农民和其他行业影响相同,农民就不能靠提高农产品价格来补偿。因为如果农民以补偿税收为由涨价,那么制衣匠、鞋匠、帽匠和家具商也会同样涨价。结果大家都涨价,谁也没有真正得到补偿。所以,只有税收负担不均时,涨价才能成为个别行业的补偿手段。
上下文
李嘉图分析工资税对不同行业的影响,指出普遍征税时涨价无法补偿。
今日一问
当所有人都面临同样的成本上升时,你还能靠涨价来解决问题吗?
