Excerpt from Who Pays the Taxes?: Allocation of Federal, State, and Local Taxes to Consumer Income Brackets

Various taxes imply not only different costs of collection but also varying costs of payment for the taxpayer and result in diverse degrees of tax resistance, a factor not to be overlooked in judging a tax system. The economic frictions also differ as between taxes. This aspect, too, is outside the scope of this study but should not be ignored in a comprehensive appraisal Of a tax system and Of reform proposals; Thus, although the aspect Of progressiveness and regressiveness presented in this study is fundamental - it is probably the most essential single aspect for judging a tax system, nevertheless, it is not the only criterion which should be applied in deciding on tax policy.
