Gentry and R. Glenn Hubbard Columbia University and N.B.E.R. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY As a tax base, "consumption" is sometimes argued to be less fair than "income" because the benefits of not taxing capital income accrue to high- income households. We argue that, despite the common perception that consumption taxation eliminates all taxes on capital income, consumption and income taxes actually treat similarly much of what is commonly called capital income. Indeed, relative to an income tax, a consumption tax exempts only the tax on the opportunity cost of capital. In contrast to a pure income tax, a consumption tax replaces capital depreciation with This paper was prepared for presentation at the NBER Conference on Tax Policy and the Economy, Washington, DC, October 22, 1996.

  • What Is Labor Supply and Do Taxes Affect It?
    NBER WORKING PAPER SERIES WHAT IS LABOR SUPPLY AND DO TAXES AFFECT IT? Harvey S. Rosen Working Paper No. 411 NATIONAL BUREAU OF ECONOMIC RESEARCH 1050 Massachusetts Avenue Cambridge MA 02138 November 1979 The research reported here is part of the NBER's research program in Taxation. Any opinions expressed are those of the author and not those of the National Bureau of Economic Research. Support was provided by NSF Grant No. SOC-7907847. I would like to thank C. Reimers, P. Hendershott, J. Eaton and J. Pechman for useful suggestions. This paper was prepared for presentation at the meetings of the American Economics Association, December, 1979. NBER Working Paper 411 November 1979 What is Labor Supply and Do Taxes Affect it? ABSTRACT There is a large econometric literature on the impact of income taxes on hours of work and labor force participation rates. It has long been understood, however, that the concept "labor supply" is more general than "hours of work." Individual differences in skills, motivation and health will influence the effective labor supply associated with any given number of hours of work. The purpose of this paper is to suggest some ways by which it might be possible to learn something about the effects of taxes on these other, and possibly very important, dimensions of labor supply. Harvey S. Rosen Department of Economics Princeton University Princeton, NJ 08544 609/452-4000 The issue of tax induced changes in labor supply behavior has been re­ ceiving increasing attention. Economic theory alone can say little about the impact of income taxation on labor supply because of the well known conflict between income and substitutiQO effects.

  • "What Can an Economic Adviser Do When the President Adopts Bad Economic Policies?"
    "What Can An Economic Adviser Do When the President Adopts Bad Economic Policies?" Jeffrey Frankel, Harpel Professor, KSG, Harvard University The Pierson Lecture, Swarthmore, April 21, 2005 Summary: What would you do if you were appointed Chair of the Council of Economic Advisers under a president who was committed to one or more specific policies that you considered to be inconsistent with good economics? A look at the experiences of your predecessors over the last 40 years might help illustrate your alternative options. The lecture will review the history. It will then go on to suggest that such conflicts should be particularly acute in the current Administration. The reason is that Republican presidents have increasingly adopted policies-- with regard particularly to budget deficits, trade, the size of government, and inflation -- that deviate from the principles of good economics, and that used to be considered the weaknesses of Democratic presidents. It is a great honor to be giving the Pierson lecture.1 I must confess that I never had Frank Pierson for a course. But he was the senior eminence of the Economics Department when I attended Swarthmore in the early 1970s, having already been associated with the department more than 40 years. In that time, Frank Pierson was known as one of the last professors who still regularly held his honors seminars at his house, with an impressive series of desserts, including make-your-own sundaes, and Irish coffee. The early 1970s were a volatile time of course, with the War in Viet Nam still on.2 In 1972 the big split on campus was between those of us working for McGovern on the left, and the 1 The author wishes to acknowledge help from Peter Jaquette, Arnold Kling, Jeff Miron, Stephen O’Connell, Francis Bator, Michael Boskin, David Cutler, Jason Furman, Gilbert Heebner, William Gale, Jeff Liebman, Peter Orszag, Roger Porter, Charles Schultze, Phillip Swagel, Laura Tyson, Murray Weidenbaum, Marina Whitman, and Janet Yellen.
