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.

There are some promotions in life, which, independent of the more substantial rewards they offer, acquire peculiar value and dignity from the coats and waistcoats connected with them. A field-marshal has his uniform; a bishop his silk apron; a counsellor his silk gown; a beadle his cocked hat. Strip the bishop of his apron, or the beadle of his hat and lace; what are they? Men. Mere men. Dignity, and even holiness too, sometimes, are more questions of coat and waistcoat than some people imagine.
