  • Global Tax Reform: Who's Leading, Who's Lagging, and Is the US in The
    Tax Foundation “Global Tax Reform: Who’s Leading, Who’s Lagging, and Is the U.S in the Race?” November 18, 2004 How Will Large Advanced Economies Respond to these Global Trends? Scott Hodge: We’ve asked our next three panelists to answer a couple of key questions. What is the influence of the new competitive global environment on their economies and tax policies? And how have they reconciled the need for tax revenues with the need to promote competition and at the same time maintain fairness in the system? And then what are the emerging challenges for tax reform in their countries going forward? And I’m very delighted to have our three panelists with us today. I’ll introduce all of them and then we’ll go in order. Starting with Dawn Primarolo, who is a member of Parliament and Paymaster General in the United Kingdom. As Paymaster General, Ms. Primarolo has a strategic oversight over the UK tax system as a whole, including direct, indirect corporate taxation, capital gains tax, inheritance tax, VAT, European and international tax issues. That’s a very, very 1 broad portfolio to be able to get your arms around. She’s been a member of Parliament for South Bristol since 1987. And our second speaker will be Vadim Grishin who is the head of the Economic Office at the Embassy of the Russian Federation. We’re very delighted that Mr. Grishin has joined us today. He concentrates his activities within the Economic Office on expanding Russian/American economic partnerships, especially business dialogues in promising fields such as energy, high technology and finance.

  • An ABC of Taxes
    An ABC of Taxes 2013 Edition An ABC of Taxes | 1 Introduction There are many tasks in society that cannot be performed by individuals alone. These tasks include the provision of education, public infrastructures, health care, a social safety net and internal and external security. In such areas the state acts on society’s behalf. Its activities are financed from tax receipts and they are the state’s most important source of revenue. Without this resource, the state would not be able to take action in the interests of all citizens. This booklet provides information about the different types of taxes in effect in Germany. It tells you who has to pay taxes, what those taxes are for and how much they are. It also reviews the historical development of taxes and other charges, and describes the legal basis on which they are levied.
