Fiction, Form And Substance In Subchapter K -- Approaching Partnership Mergers, Divisions And Incorporations, Heather M. Field
ExpressO

It is appropriate, therefore, only to the extent that the market cannot provide goods and services for which there is public demand; if private markets equitably supplied food, shelter, health care, education, and common defense, taxes could be greatly reduced if not completely eliminated. The revenue raising goal is thwarted to the extent the taxing system is either …
