  • Assessing the House Republicans' “A Better Way” Tax Reform
    Assessing the House Republicans’ “A Better Way” Tax Reform Alan Auerbach University of California, Berkeley Laurence Kotlikoff Boston University and Darryl Koehler The Fiscal Analysis Center June 21, 2017 We thank The Goodman Institute, the Burch Center for Tax Policy and Public Finance, The Fiscal Analysis Center, Boston University, Economic Security Planning, Inc. and the Sloan Foundation for research support. All opinions are strictly those of the authors. We thank John Goodman, Jane Gravelle, Jack Mintz, Jeffrey Sachs, and Donald Schneider for very helpful comments. Overview of the House Republican Tax Plan The House Republican “A Better Way” tax reform1 plan includes a significant redesign of our business tax system. It effectively would replace the corporate income tax with a 20 percent destination-based business cash-flow tax. Proprietorships, partnerships, S corporations and other pass-through entities would face a distinct schedule with a top rate of 25 percent on pass-through income, leading to a need for provisions to limit the ability of high-income households to move income from the new top 33 percent personal rate to the 25 percent rate. The reform would also streamline and significantly simplify personal income taxation by eliminating the Alternative Minimum Tax, unifying the tax treatment of personal asset income (taxing half of personal asset income), eliminating exemptions, eliminating the deductibility of state income and property taxes, raising the standard deduction and modifying the child-tax credit. In addition, the plan moves from seven to three income-tax brackets, with the top rate lowered from 39.6 percent to 33 percent. This paper examines the reform’s potential impact on revenues, inequality, and fiscal progressivity.2 The plan’s proposed reform of business taxation is particularly significant for potential U.S.

Buchanan* The Social Security system has come under attackfor having illegit- imately transferred wealth from younger generations to the Baby Boom generation. This attack is unfounded, because it fails to understand how the system was altered in order to force the Baby Boomers to finance their own benefits in retirement. Any challenges that Social Security now faces are not caused by the pay-as-you-go structure of the system but by Baby Boomers' other policy errors, especially the emergence of extreme economic inequality since 1980.

  • The Ascent of Money: a Financial History of the World
    NIALL FERGUSON Author of THE WAR OF THE WORLD THE ASCENT OF MONEY A FINANCIAL HISTORY of THE WORLD U.S. $29.95 Canada $33.00 Bread, cash, dosh, dough, loot: Call it what you like, it matters. To Christians, love of it is the root of all evil. To generals, it's the sinews of war. To revolu­ tionaries, it's the chains of labor. But in The Ascent of Money, Niall Ferguson shows that finance is in fact the foundation of human progress. What's more, he reveals financial history as the essential backstory behind all history. The evolution of credit and debt was as impor­ tant as any technological innovation in the rise of civilization, from ancient Babylon to the silver mines of Bolivia. Banks provided the material basis for the splendors of the Italian Renaissance while the bond market was the decisive factor in conflicts from the Seven Years' War to the American Civil War. With the clarity and verve for which he is known, Ferguson explains why the origins of the French Revolution lie in a stock market bubble caused by a convicted Scots murderer. He shows how financial failure turned Argentina from the world's sixth richest country into an inflation- ridden basket case—and how a financial revolution is propelling the world's most populous country from poverty to power in a single generation. Yet the most important lesson of the financial history is that sooner or later every bubble bursts —sooner or later the bearish sellers outnumber the bullish buyers, sooner or later greed flips into fear.
