Download or read book Time and Tax Issues in International EU and Constitutional Law written by Werner Haslehner and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2018-12-20 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Time is a crucial dimension in the application of any law. In tax law, however, where an environment characterized by rapid change on the national, European, and international levels complicates the provision of accurate legal advice, timing is particularly sensitive. This book is the first to analyse the relationship between time and three key areas of tax: treaties, EU law, and constitutional law issues, such as legal certainty and individual rights. Among the numerous timing issues arising out of applying tax rules, the book addresses the following: – time limits within which relief must be requested; – statutes of limitation for claiming a tax refund; – transitional issues relating to changes in tax treaties; – attribution of profits and expenses to a moving or closed-down business; – effect of tax-related CJEU decisions and EU directives; – compliance of exit tax regimes with free movement; – limits of retroactivity under principles protected by the EU Charter and the ECHR; and – conflict between efficiency of taxation and individual rights. Derived from a recent conference organized by the prestigious ATOZ Chair for European and International Taxation at the University of Luxembourg, the book brings together contributions from leading tax experts from various areas of tax practice, academia, and the judiciary. Among other issues, the book notably expands on how economic theory can inform a constitutional analysis of the timing of taxation. There is no other work that concentrates so usefully on the difficulties associated with applying tax rules – whether arising from treaties, jurisprudence, or policy – to changing circumstances over time. This book will quickly prove itself to be an indispensable resource for European tax lawyers, policymakers, company counsels, and academics.

Download or read book Tax the Rich written by Morris Pearl and published by The New Press. This book was released on 2021-04-13 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A powerfully persuasive and thoroughly entertaining guide to the most effective way to un-rig the economy and fix inequality, from America's wealthiest “class traitors” The vast majority of Americans—71 percent—believe the economy is rigged in favor of the rich. Guess what? They’re right. How do you rig an economy? You start with the tax code. In Tax the Rich! former BlackRock executive Morris Pearl, the millionaire chair of the Patriotic Millionaires, and Erica Payne, the organization’s founder, take readers on an engaging and enlightening insider’s tour of the nation’s tax code, explaining exactly how “the rich”—and the politicians they control—manipulate the U.S. tax code to ensure the rich get richer, and everyone else is left holding the bag. Blunt and irreverent, Tax the Rich! unapologetically dismantles the “intellectual” justifications for a tax code that virtually guarantees destabilizing levels of inequality and consequent social unrest. Infographics, charts, cartoons, and lively characters including “the Werkhardts” and “the Slumps” make a complicated subject accessible (and, yes, sometimes even funny) and illuminate the practical reforms that can put America on the road to stability and shared prosperity before it’s too late. Never have the arguments in this book been more timely—or more important.

This book was released on 2018-02-16 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Taxing Times; The Case for Irs Reform: Hearing Before the Subcommittee on National Economic Growth, Natural Resources, and Regulatory Affairs of the Committee on Government Reform and Oversight, House of Representatives, One Hundred Fourth Congress, Second Session, April 3, 1996 As tax day is fast approaching, the Internal Revenue Code, our obligation to file our taxes, the copious forms we have to fill out, the regulations we must comply with, are obviously on our minds. During my campaign for the us. Congress and as a part of my tenure in Congress, I have consistently asked my constituents what issues they want me to address. And consistently, they have said to me that they are concerned about the tax burden imposed upon them by the Federal Government. They have said to me what they hope we will do in this Congress is to get Government off their backs so that they can build their businesses, create jobs and pro vide for their families. Let me turn just for a moment and refer to the exhibits which you see behind you, because I think they are quite interesting. To my right, your left, is the joint resolution establishing the authority of the us. Congress to collect an income tax - to levy and collect an income tax. That was passed in 1909 and became the l6th amendment to the us. Constitution. On my left, your right, you will see the first Income Tax Code of the Nation. That is, by the way, the entire first Income Tax Code of the Nation. It consists of approximately 15 pages. By contrast, you will see in front of me all these volumes. They comprise approximately pages of Tax Code which now govern your conduct and the payment of your taxes. That is quite a dramatic change between 1909 and 1996 where we sit in this particular circumstance. What then is the purpose of this hearing? Well, let me start with one issue that is of great concern to me and has some bearing here, and that is that in 1992, as chairman of the It's Time anti-tax initiative, the proposition 108, we passed a constitutional amend ment here in Arizona to require a two-thirds majority before taxes in the State could be raised yet again. I made a pledge that as a Member of the us. Congress, I would take that fight to the Fed eral Government, and I have done so. Early in my term, I urged House Speaker Newt Gingrich to schedule a vote on a tax limita tion amendment. And as many of you know, that vote will occur this year just shortly less than 2 weeks from today. On tax day 1996, April 15, Monday, a week from this coming Monday, there will be a vote in the us. Congress on a tax limitation amendment, an amendment that follows the Arizona example, requiring a super majority by both the House and the Senate before taxes can be raised. Four out of the last five Federal tax increases have been passed with less than a two-thirds majority. This amendment, the tax limitation amendment, would make it somewhat more difficult for the Congress to raise your Federal taxes one more time.

Download or read book Taxing Ourselves fourth edition written by Joel Slemrod and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2008-02-08 with total page 397 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fourth edition of a popular guide to the key issues in tax reform, discussing the current system and alternative proposals clearly and without a political agenda. As Albert Einstein may or may not have said, "The hardest thing in the world to understand is the income tax." Indeed, to follow the debate over tax reform, the interested citizen is forced to choose between misleading sound bites and academic treatises. Taxing Ourselves bridges the gap between the two by discussing the key issues clearly and without a political agenda: Should the federal income tax be replaced with a flat tax or sales tax? Should it be left in place and reformed? Can tax cuts stimulate the economy, or will higher deficits undermine any economic benefit? Authors and tax policy experts Joel Slemrod and Jon Bakija lay out in accessible language what is known and not known about how taxes affect the economy, offer guidelines for evaluating tax systems, and provide enough information to assess both the current income tax system and the leading proposals to reform or replace it (including the flat tax and the consumption tax). The fourth edition of this popular guide has been extensively revised to incorporate the latest information, covering such recent developments as the Bush administration's tax cuts (which expire in 2011) and the alternatives proposed by the President's Advisory Panel on Federal Tax Reform. Slemrod and Bakija provide us with the knowledge and the tools—including an invaluable voter's guide to the tax policy debate—to make our own informed choices about how we should tax ourselves.

Download or read book A Fine Mess written by T. R. Reid and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2017 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The U.S. tax code is a total write-off. Crammed with loopholes and special interest provisions, it works for no one except tax lawyers, accountants, and huge corporations. Not for the first time, we have reached a breaking point -- in fact, we reach one every thirty-two years. T.R. Reid crisscrosses the globe in search of exact solutions to the urgent tax problems of the United States. With an uncanny knack for making a complex subject not just accessible but gripping, he investigates what makes good taxation (no, that's not an oxymoron) and brings that knowledge home where it is needed most. Reid presses the case for sensible root-and-branch reforms that will affect everyone. Doing our taxes will never be America's favorite pastime, but it can and should be so much easier and fairer"--Adapted from the book jacket.

Download or read book Taxes on Knowledge in America written by Randall P. Bezanson and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2015-08-14 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Taxes on Knowledge in America, Randall P. Bezanson explores the extent to which the publication and distribution of current public information is effected by economic exactions. The book begins with a brief overview of the English history and experience with knowledge taxes, before turning to a discussion of knowledge taxes in America from colonial times to the present. In addition to covering traditional printed publications, Bezanson looks at recent developments in broadcast and cable telecommunications, devotes a chapter to the history of the postal system, and gleans insight from three benchmark Supreme Court decisions. Bezanson provocatively concludes that knowledge is common property and knowledge taxes should be measured by their impact on the diversity of ideas and availability of information throughout society.
