Download or read book How Money Walks How 2 Trillion Moved Between the States and Why It Matters written by Travis H. Brown and published by How Money Walks. This book was released on 2013 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1995 and 2010, millions of Americans moved between the states, taking with them over $2 trillion in adjusted gross incomes. Two trillion dollars is equivalent to the GDP of California, the ninth largest in the world. It’s a lot of money. Some states, like Florida, saw tremendous gains ($86.4 billion), while others, like New York, experienced massive losses ($58.6 billion). People moved, and they took their working wealth with them. The question is, why? Why did Americans move so much of their income from state to state? Which states benefitted and which states suffered? And why does it matter? Using official statistics from the IRS, How Money Walks explores the hows, whys, and impact of this massive movement of American working wealth. Consider these facts. Between 1995 and 2010: The nine states with no personal income taxes gained $146.2 billion in working wealth The nine states with the highest personal income tax rates lost $107.4 billion The 10 states with the lowest per capita state-local tax burdens gained $69.9 billion The 10 states with the highest per capita state-local tax burdens lost $139 billion Money—and people—moved from high-tax states to low-tax ones. And the tax that seemed to matter the most? The personal income tax. The states with no income taxes gained the greatest wealth, while the states with the highest income taxes lost the most. Why does this matter? Because the robust presence of working wealth is the leading indicator of economic health. The states that gained working wealth are growing and thriving. The states that lost working wealth lost their most precious cargo—their tax base—and the consequences are dire: stagnation, deterioration, an economic death spiral as they continue to raise taxes and lose people, businesses, and working wealth. The numbers don't lie. ___________________ “When I read How Money Walks, I thought, ‘It’s about time.’ Finally, we have a book that addresses one of our nation’s most critical (yet rarely discussed) fiscal issues: the migration of working wealth as a direct result of personal income tax rates. Brown’s book paints a clear portrait of where money goes and why. How Money Walks should be required reading for anyone who wants to understand why some states struggle to retain people and businesses while others welcome billions of new dollars each year.” Dr. Arthur Laffer Founder and chairman, Laffer Associates and Laffer Investments Former economic advisor to President Ronald Reagan

Book excerpt: Introduction: Michigan: "Great in the things that make men great" -- In his 1883 ruling in the case of Edwards v McEnhill, Michigan Supreme Court Justice Thomas Cooley wrote that a mason taking "his wife into partnership in his business may well excite surprise," implying that married women had no capacity to make contracts while reinforcing the masculine nature of wage work. In Edwards, Cooley affirmed conventional wisdom-that men were primary agents in the workplace, and that women worked occasionally or secondarily. By 1915, however, the same Michigan Supreme Court approved a law that seemed to place men and women on the same industrial footing. A little know struggle spearheaded by men to control the workplace occurred in the intervening three decades. Through union solidarity, men found a way to achieve protection without sacrificing control. The period between the Edwards and Mackin cases reveals how male workers, through work stoppages, petitions, lawsuits, and protective labor laws, attempted to gain traction in contractual negotiations-a power that they never fully realized. Reactions to this fight shaped public policy. To understand the emergence of protectionist legislation for both men and women, we need to look at Michigan's economic potential and its reform movements, tensions over industrial relations, workers' experiences in court, and the operation of gender in crafting public policy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This booklet recommends cooperatively re-examining U.S. public education and recognizing that though there are disagreements in the ongoing education debate, everyone's goals are the same (to provide all children with a quality education and to prepare them for participation in public life). After noting that schools are not living up to American ideals, the booklet explains the nature of the problem, discusses the importance of caring about the nation's children, and examines past efforts to address educational problems (increasing spending on education, reducing class size, nationalizing curriculum and testing, creating model schools, and allowing school choice). These reforms have all had problems. The booklet notes that the past reforms highlight the need for a systematic, reliable, lasting mechanism for promoting educational excellence. It recommends looking for trends in the kinds of systems that worked well or poorly across many different cultural settings, comparing educational outcomes between similar and contemporary societies that adopted different education systems, and determining what happened to educational outcomes when a given society abandoned one education system in favor of another. It concludes that essential elements of an education market include parental choice, direct financial responsibility for parents, freedom for educators, competition among schools, and the profit motive for schools.

Download or read book American Labor Congress and the Welfare State 1935 2010 written by Tracy Roof and published by Johns Hopkins University Press+ORM. This book was released on 2011-05-23 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A study of the relationship between the U.S. Congress and the American labor movement over the course of a 75-year period. Despite achieving monumental reforms in the United States such as the eight-hour workday, a federal minimum wage, and workplace health and safety laws, organized labor’s record on much of its agenda has been mixed. Tracy Roof’s sweeping examination of labor unions and the American legislative process explains how this came to be and what it means for American workers. Tracing a 75-year arc in labor movement history, Roof discusses the complex interplay between unions and Congress, showing the effects of each on the other, how the relationship has evolved, and the resulting political outcomes. She analyzes labor’s success at passing legislation and pushing political reform in the face of legislative institutional barriers such as the Senate filibuster and an entrenched and powerful committee structure, looks at the roots and impact of the interdependent relationship between the Democratic Party and the labor movement, and assesses labor's prospects for future progress in creating a comprehensive welfare state. Roof’s original investigation details the history, actions, and consequences of major policy battles over areas such as labor law reform and health care policy. In the process, she brings to light practical and existential questions for labor leaders, scholars, and policy makers. Although American labor remains a force within the political process, decades of steadily declining membership and hostile political forces pose real threats to the movement. Roof’s shrewd exploration of unions, Congress, and the political process challenges conventional explanations for organized labor’s political failings.
