Jefferson approved of having the House of Representatives chosen by voters because he was convinced that people should only be taxed by Representatives whom they have elected.
Jefferson literally stated: "I like the power given the Legislature to levy taxes, and for that reason solely I approve of the greater house being chosen by the people directly. For though I think a house so chosen . . . will be very illy qualified to legislate for the Union, for foreign nations, etc., yet this evil does not weigh against the good of preserving . . . the fundamental principle that the people are not to be taxed but by representatives chosen . . . by themselves".
