Introd:y Observations

The true ground therefore on which, if at all,
this part point in the system appears to be defensible
is as follows. The expence of this operation
as of every operation of government
must be rest imposed in the shape of a burthen upon
somebody. In the present instance the effect of
the burthen will be to bring a profit into the
pockets of a certain description of persons. These
then are the persons on whom to lay the burthen,
especially if the amount of the profit promises to
be greater than the amount of the burthen necessitated
and produced by the same measures. So many
distinct individuals of each class of dealers traders as are drawn
out of the trade by the countroul of the licence,
so much trade and thence so much profit remains
to be shared by the honest individuals,
who, having nothing to fear from that controul,
remain in that the trade.
