Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the financial, commercial, and colonial policies proposed by the Whig Budget and their implications. The author argues that the plan to levy a fixed duty on foreign corn would increase prices, prevent cheap years, and make bread dearer. The proposed changes to sugar duties, while appearing beneficial, would have led to a sudden and extensive loss of trade and capital in Jamaica and other British colonies. Moreover, the author contends that the Whig Budget's disregard for the impact of hostile tariffs and differential duties on precious metal distribution poses a grave threat to the nation's economic health. The author emphasizes the importance of maintaining a steady, science-based approach to commercial legislation and highlights the crucial role of the precious metals in determining a nation's command over foreign labor. This book is a valuable resource for those interested in the historical, theoretical, and practical aspects of financial, commercial, and colonial policies. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
