Book excerpt: Widespread voluntary tax compliance plays a significant role in countries’ efforts to raise the revenues necessary to achieve Sustainable Development Goals.

Download or read book Taxing Ourselves fifth edition written by Joel Slemrod and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2017-06-02 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The new edition of a popular guide to the key issues in tax reform, presented in a clear, nontechnical, and unbiased way. To follow the debate over tax reform, the interested citizen is often forced to choose between misleading sound bites and academic treatises. Taxing Ourselves bridges the gap between the oversimplified and the arcane, presenting the key issues clearly and without a political agenda. 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 and offer guidelines for evaluating tax systems—both the current tax system and proposals to reform it. This fifth edition has been extensively revised to incorporate the latest data, empirical evidence, and tax law. It offers new material on recent tax reform proposals, expanded coverage of international tax issues, and the latest enforcement initiatives. Offering historical perspectives, outlining the basic criteria by which tax policy should be judged (fairness, economic impact, enforceability), examining proposals for both radical change (replacement of the income tax with a flat tax or consumption tax) and incremental changes to the current system, and concluding with a voter's guide, the book provides readers with enough background to make informed judgments about how we should tax ourselves. Praise for earlier editions “An excellent book.” —Jeff Medrick, New York Times “A fair-minded exposition of a politically loaded subject.” —Kirkus Reviews
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 Taxed to Death written by Lawrence a. Hunter Ph. D. and published by . This book was released on 2014-02 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dr. Lawrence A. Hunter is president of the Social Security Institute, a 501(c) (4) non-profi t, seniors' advocacy organization. He has written a weekly column for Forbes and regularly published in other major newspapers, periodicals and done research for numerous think tanks. He gives frequent speeches and regularly appears on television and radio. During his time in Washington politics, Dr. Hunter was a White House policy advisor to President Ronald Reagan, chief economist of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, chief of staff of the congressional Joint Economic Committee and chief economist, speech writer and political advisor for Jack Kemp at Empower America. Prior to that, Dr. Hunter was an assistant professor at the University of Maryland-College Park. He is a graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee and holds a Ph.D. from the University of Minnesota. He is married to Georganna F. Hunter, the father of nine children and seven grandchildren. "Magnificent. . .the best single piece that's ever been written on the income tax and the IRS." Richard W. Rahn, Ph.D., American Political Economist & Author of The End of Money Income taxes are political and economic weapons of mass destruction used by governments on their own people. To paraphrase Chief Justice John Marshall, the power to tax income is the power to subvert society. Taxed To Death is both entertaining reading and serious scholarship, written in popular prose for the non-specialist reader. Hunter masterfully weaves together economic analysis, public choice theory, political science, history and journalism into a tapestry that exposes the far-reaching, pernicious effects the income tax and the IRS have had on America during the past century. He demonstrates vividly how income taxation adversely affects not only those who pay the tax but also how it shackles to the bottom rungs of the economic ladder those who earn too little to pay it. The IRS is a bureaucratic despot, completely out of control and in principle uncontrollable. But, for all that Americans find loathsome and despicable about the IRS, it is merely the symptom of a larger problem-the income tax itself-and a deeper pathology-a spiritual poverty and an unconquered fear within the American people that produce a craving for the hive-the collective-and a willingness to give up their individuality and God-given rights to become worker bees subservient to the guardians of the "greater good" of the collective, which only they (the guardians) get to define. Americans face a choice: Allow the collectivization of America to continue until the process is complete and then wait for the collective to self destruct the way Communism did. Or, Americans can take an important first step now to restore personal privacy, individual liberty and economic opportunity, going right to the core of the problem and demolishing the foundation on which the collective sits by repealing the income tax and the 16th Amendment and abolishing the IRS.
