\DeclareFixedFootnote{\fnTaxCollector}{
|
|
The Romans contracted local tax-collectors to collect their taxes.
|
|
Tax collectors were entitled by law to charge more than what the Romans required,
|
|
pocketing the difference for themselves.
|
|
So they were especially hated: for collaborating with the Romans at all,
|
|
and because there was no real limit to the extra money they could extract.
