What reading level is Liberalism An Attempt to State the Principles And Proposals of Contemporary Lib book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
A man worth ^"5, 000 a year was held to enjoy ten times as much protection as a man with, 500 a year, and should therefore pay just ten times as much to the State. Now-a-days, however, few thinkers would accept this doctrine. To defend property is re- cognized to be only one of the functions of government among many. Education, indeed, is an antidote to crime, but the schools exist, not primarily to prevent crime, but to make men better. The army is useful for the preservation of order, but the... army is maintained less for that purpose than for defending the national independence in which all orders of Englishmen, rich and poor alike, take an equal pride. Government is not on a cash basis. To assume that the benefit from the services of the State is to be measured by the wealth protected, is wholly to misunderstand the real duties which the State sets out to perform.
You cannot tax the various classes, therefore, accord- ing to the benefit they receive, for all are served by every wise expenditure, and you cannot tell what proportion of the advantage falls to the share of each.
