  • 'Doc Fix' Reforming Pension Plans and the Tax Code the Fed, Dollar
    Subject: Obamacare’s fifth anniversary, reforming pension plans, and the Fed Obamacare’s fifth anniversary and the ‘doc fix’ VIDEO -- Future of Obamacare still uncertain five years later | Timothy P. Carney | Fox News’s ‘Happening Now’ Five years have passed since President Obama signed the Affordable Care Act into law. Since then, the bill has remained unpopular among many and done little to transform health care. Unpacking the Burr-Hatch-Upton plan | Joseph Antos and James C. Capretta | Health Affairs Blog The Burr-Hatch-Upton plan may not be perfect, but it should lay to rest the argument that there is no viable alternative to the ACA. An unappealing ‘doc fix’ | James C. Capretta | National Review Online New “doc fix” legislation will increase the deficit and pave the way for more regulation of physician services. AUDIO -- Discussing what’s at stake in King v. Burwell | Thomas P. Miller | ‘Real Clear Radio Hour’ King v. Burwell could pose a major setback to the Affordable Care Act. Reforming pension plans and the tax code NEW RESEARCH -- Why Americans don’t face a retirement crisis | Andrew G. Biggs and Sylvester J. Schieber | AEI Economic Perspectives AEI relaunches its Economic Perspectives series with this detailed report on the “retirement crisis” myth. Pension reform doesn't mean higher taxes | Andrew Biggs | The Wall Street Journal (subscription required) Annual required contributions to Pennsylvania’s defined-benefit plan have soared from only 4 percent of employee payroll in 2008 to more than 20 percent today. Legislators in the state, like many elected officials nationwide, are looking for a way out.

PUB TYPE Reports - Research/Technical (143) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC07 Plus Postage.

Although the earnings gap between black and white men was substantially reduced between 1940 and 1980, black men still earn less than white men. While the relative earnings of black men has risen since 1940, their relative employment has declined. Factors that influence the earnings gap include the following: (1) discrimination; (2) education; (3) region of residence; (4) industrial sector; and (5) marital status. The report finds that while a narrowing of racial differences in worker characteristics accounts for part of the earnings convergence, other factors, including declining racial prejudice, federal civil rights policies, and unmeasured changes in employment skills,

CIVIL RIGHTS: RHETORIC OR REALITY? By Thomas Sowell.' New York: William Morrow & Co. 1984. Pp. 164. $11.95. James D. Anderson2 The publication of this book provides an opportunity to as­ sess Sowell's neoconservative ideas on the economics of race and sex. Sowell offers alternative explanations of the historical and contemporary causes of statistical disparities in incomes and occu­ pational status between men and women and among American ethnic groups. He calls for an end to government attempts to in­ crease employment and educational opportunities for minorities, the repeal of minimum wage laws, and the abolition of affirmative action programs. Philosopher Sidney Hook, sociologist Seymour Martin Lip­ set, Walter Laquer of the Center for Strategic and International Studies at Georgetown University, and columnists George F. Will, William Satire, and R. Emmett Tyrell, Jr. have pursued the same ends. Sowell's pet concerns are also issues about which such neoconservative scholars as Nathan Glazer, Diane Ravitch, Rich­ ard B.

  • The Border Adjustment Tax Impact by Industry
    MAY 2017 THE BORDER ADJUSTMENT TAX IMPACT BY INDUSTRY ALAN NGUYEN, SENIOR POLICY ADVISER, FREEDOM PARTNERS MARY KATE HOPKINS, DEPUTY DIRECTOR OF FEDERAL AFFAIRS, AMERICANS FOR PROSPERITY INTRODUCTION On April 26th, President Donald Trump unveiled his long-awaited plan to reform our nation’s tax code. Like the plan previously released by Republicans in the U.S. House of Representatives, the president outlines a number of specific policy proposals that would reduce rates and complexity, eliminate special-interest loopholes, grow our economy, and create jobs and opportunity for the American people. Notably absent from the president’s plan is a controversial provision that was included in the House Republican plan and threatens the livelihood of many U.S. businesses: the border adjustment tax (BAT). Though the BAT is not mentioned in the president’s outline of tax principles, House Ways and Means Chairman Kevin Brady has reiterated that it remains a key provision that he’ll bring to the table in tax reform discussions,1 while President Trump’s budget chief clarified that “just because it’s not in the first round of ‘principles’ doesn’t mean it won’t be in the final version of the bill.”2 The BAT, therefore, still looms large. The BAT effectively slaps a 20 percent tax on everything that companies import into the United States. This 20 percent import tax would cause tax bills to skyrocket for businesses that rely heavily on imported goods and would hurt ordinary Americans as businesses pass the new tax on to consumers in the form of higher prices.

  • Milton Friedman and Thomas Sowell
    REFLECTIONS ON PETER BAUER’S CONTRIBUTIONS TO DEVELOPMENT ECONOMICS Milton Friedman and Thomas Sowell This discussion was recorded at the Hoover Institution for use at a conference at Princeton University, “How Does Development Hap- pen? A Conference in Tribute to Peter Bauer,” May 6–8, 2004—Ed. Friedman: Tom Sowell and I are glad to be able to participate in your discussion of Peter Bauer’s work at long distance. Peter was a close personal friend of mine and we are all upset at his early demise. His work was important and will live on. Sowell: The thing that strikes me most about Peter Bauer is how he stuck to his guns through decade after decade—when he was outside the mainstream, all by himself. And then, by the end of his life, the mainstream had moved over to where he was. Friedman: It reminds me of what’s happened to you, Tom. You’ve gone through essentially the same process. Sowell: I think I’m a few decades away. Friedman: Well, no. At any rate, there are still elements of the opposition to Peter’s views that are not negligible—I guess the same thing goes with respect to your views. Sowell: Absolutely. There are many people who have a vested interest in being opposed to his views, because if you understood the message of Peter Bauer then you would begin to question such things as foreign aid.
