Recenzii
A valuable new primer on the nation's wild and crazy revenue system. Taxes in America is a clear, concise, and easy-to-read tour of the U.S. revenue system. It is written in a simple question-and-answer format, and does a nice job of breaking down complex tax theory into bite-sized understandable chunks. If you find yourself baffled by the politicians' arguments over tax rates and "loopholes" or about the various forms of tax reforms that are floating around, Taxes in America will help you understand what it is that lawmakers are about to do to you.
This is an excellent, understandable book on a topic important to a wide rangeof library patrons.
Burman and Slemrod bring their wealth of experience and scholarship to the task of helping the American taxpayer and voter understand the language of taxation
As America gears up to debate fundamental tax reform again, two of the giants of the field have laid out everything you need to know in order to understand what reform means and why it matters-how the tax system works, who pays and how inefficient it is. If every policy maker in America read this book, the tax code would probably look a lot different.
This volume provides an excellent overview of tax policy. Using non-technical language, it lucidly discusses institutional, political, and economic issues associated with the tax system. All those who want to find their way through the thicket of tax reform will want to have a copy of this book on their shelves.
This volume makes complex issues of tax design and economic analysis not only accessible, but often entertaining. It explains with extraordinary clarity the current tax system, as well as leading reform proposals. It is must reading for anyone who hopes to understand and to participate in the approaching national debate on tax reform.
Recently I've been reading economists Leonard Burman and Joel Slemrod’s Taxes in America. Like pretty much everything else these two write, this book is well worth reading. In particular, it hits all the important questions about taxes in a clear and neutral manner. I highly recommend it whether you want to learn more about our tax system, its incidences, its cost, and more, or whether you want to learn how to explain complex tax issues in a simple and concise way.
Burman and Slemrod, outstanding tax scholars, explain what everyone needs to know about US federal taxes, as promised in the title. Their approach to explaining federal tax complexities is to pose questions...then provide straightforward, jargon-free answers to these questions. Even when the logic of the answer is convoluted and sophisticated, based on stacks of economic analysis, the authors manage clear, direct answers. The book provides the best start for anyone struggling to make sense of the federal tax system and of the current argument about tax reform and restructuring. It does not provide the answers, nor does it try to, but this work provides the best available context for understanding what is going on and for allowing the reader to reach an informed decision about the arguments. Essential.
