Abstract

Wicksell advocates unanimous consent for providing public goods. This paper reviews some existing works to fulfill Wicksell’s dream and proves that they are all ineffective. It then develops a model to solve for both the tax rate and the contribution simultaneously. It further proves that such solution, if any, is pure luck. The Wicksellian theory of direct government intervention is infeasible.
