About Federalist No. 30
Federalist No. 30, titled "Concerning the General Power of Taxation", is a political essay by Alexander Hamilton and the thirtieth of The Federalist Papers. It was first published in the New-York Packet on December 28, 1787, as the twenty-ninth entry in the series under the pseudonym used for all Federalist Papers, Publius. The essay argued that the national government must have broad powers of taxation to provide for national defense and the public good. It revisited ideas that were first raised in No. 12, and the series continued on the subject of taxation through No. 36.
