Summary

awless man will pay less, creating inequality in the tax burden. This quote points out the inherent unfairness in income taxation systems, as those who are honest and pay their taxes diligently are faced with a higher financial burden, while those who evade or underreport their income pay less. Consequently, this creates a situation where the just individuals are disproportionately penalized compared to the unjust ones, leading to a disparity in the distribution of tax responsibility.
