The Budget As It Is, And As It Might Be is a book written by Joseph Samuda in 1850. The book is a comprehensive analysis of the British budget of the time, examining its strengths and weaknesses and proposing potential improvements. Samuda was a prominent businessman and engineer, and his expertise in financial matters is evident throughout the book.The book is divided into several sections, each focusing on a different aspect of the budget. Samuda examines the revenue and expenditure of the government, as well as the national debt and the various taxes and duties that were in place at the time. He also discusses the role of the Bank of England and the importance of maintaining a stable currency.Throughout the book, Samuda offers his own suggestions for improving the budget. He advocates for a reduction in government spending, particularly in the military and naval departments. He also suggests changes to the tax system, including the introduction of a progressive income tax and the abolition of certain taxes that he deems unfair.Overall, The Budget As It Is, And As It Might Be is a detailed and insightful look at the British budget of the mid-19th century. Samuda's expertise and analysis make it a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of British finance and economics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
