The Framers of our Constitution drew upon classical notions of legal rights and individual liberty dating back to the Justinian Code, the Magna Carta, and the Two Treatises of John Locke, all of which recognize the importance of property ownership in a governmental system in which individual liberty and the free market are paramount.
Robbins also created a tax calculator and neo-classical economic model that make it possible to estimate the economic and revenue effects of changes to the tax code based upon how those changes alter the cost of capital and labor.
