ABSTRACT
The author presents these ideas with notable force and originality, and develops their implications with constructive imagination. For example, he argues that unemployment pay rates should rise as unemployment increases and decline as it diminishes. He argues that continuing public functions, such as education, should be supported by long-range appropriations and not be subjected to biennial legislative whims. He believes that conservatives will always construe any measures which are to be paid for by higher income taxes as disguised attempts to expropriate wealth, and therefore that his proposals should be paid for by a sales tax to avoid their being stalled in a liberal-versus-conservative deadlock.
