This essay presents a formidable array of financial figures to assert that imperial defense necessitates the involvement of all parts of the empire for support. Because Britain’s defeated rivals had failed to raise sufficient funds, they have less debt. Having less debt, they require fewer taxes, giving them an advantage which will allow them to recover sooner. Thus “present safety cannot be had without an expensive peace establishment,” and such an “establishment prevents relief from taxes.”
