Note 896 — BOOK IV. THE CRITICS.
Reading edition
The Plan is quoted by Cobbett, Pol. Reg., Dec. 14, 1816. Malthus (Pol. Ec. (1820), pp. 434, 435, (1836) p. 378) thinks that “co-proprietorship” of Government with the landlords, after the scheme of the Economists and on the analogy of Oriental “sole proprietorship,” might become too ready an engine of taxation for a military despotism.
