# Four Maxims of Taxation
|
||||
|
||||
## Definition
|
||||
|
||||
Smith's four principles for good taxation: equality (proportional to ability),
|
||||
certainty (clear and not arbitrary), convenience (paid at convenient times
|
||||
and in convenient ways), and economy (minimal collection costs and economic
|
||||
distortion).
|
||||
|
||||
## Source Chapter

||||
## Context
|
||||

taxes should be judged, using them throughout his analysis of different tax
|
||||
types to evaluate their relative merits and defects.
