Excerpt from Reconstructing America
Just what form reconstruction will take in national economics is a question that provokes diversified opinion. That the War has left unsolved the problems of Peace is obvious. War is the conduct of force in disregard of the law of supply and demand, indifferent to the individual and wholly in consideration of the fighting arm. The problem that comes after is the readjustment of inflation and the readjustment from abnormal to normal conditions.
Every man and every business has felt the reaction of war and likewise will feel the effects of the settling to normal peace economics. The heritage of the war is an enormous debt upon which taxes must be paid. To meet these obligations of the Government to ourselves as citizens of the nation, is a problem in taxation that will require the expert thought of trained minds conversant with natural and manufactured production. Money is valuable to the state only while in circulation, and legislation or taxation that impedes its movement in trade will retard its return to normal values.
The danger, in the processes at work, is radicalism, expediency, and ill advised control, by edict, legislation, or misinterpretation of power.
