How America was Tricked on Tax Policy: Secrets and Undisclosed Practices by Bret

Description: How America was Tricked on Tax Policy by Bret N. Bogenschneider It explains how regular citizens were "tricked" by the outdated view of economists that much heavier taxation of labor rather than capital is economically justifiable. The truth is that workers pay their taxes while the rich pay very little. FORMAT Hardcover LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description How America was Tricked on Tax Policy explains how regular citizens were "tricked" by the outdated view of economists that much heavier taxation of labor rather than capital is economically justifiable. The truth is that workers pay their taxes while the rich pay very little. Based on reputable sources of information, including publications of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), official statistics data, and the publications in high-ranked journals, the book paves the way for a new policy-making process aimed to achieve more sustainable taxation and to increase the wellbeing of citizens as the main goal of any modern state policy. Dealing with critically important and underexplored topics in tax policy, the book challenges an enshrined dogma that is rarely challenged at the level of policy. In doing so, this book envisions policy changes that could be highly impactful in a new political administration. This book proposes that governments should look for not just corporate income tax rate reduction when announcing their tax reforms but should equally focus on the reduction of the overall tax burden on labor. The negative impact and high social cost of wage taxation is exemplified by the key areas of tax policy that are relevant for every wealthy state, such as taking due care of public health, investing in education and wellbeing of children, and supporting small business for the overall benefit to society. The book compellingly argues how tax policy could be improved by incorporating science and scientific methods. Author Biography Bret Bogenschneider holds multiple tax and law degrees including a Juris Doctor, LLM in taxation, and PhD in international business taxation. He is an assistant professor at Indiana University East, specializing in taxation.

Review "Bogenschneider is a leading scholar in tax. His work should be labelled the Bogenschneider lens along with other great scholars." —Benjamin Walker, Senior Lecturer, School of Accounting and Commercial Law, Victoria Business School, Victoria University of Wellington, New Zealand"Wow! A book that uses philosophy of science, moral philosophy, economics and much more to illuminate technical aspects of taxation. You may disagree with parts or all of Bogenschneiders condemnation of American tax policy, but serious people need to take his arguments seriously." —Erik M. Jensen, Burke Professor Emeritus of Law, Case Western Reserve University, USABogenschneiders remarks on epistemology, economics, and scientific theory are reasonable. All in all, there is much in this book that is worthy of serious consideration. —Interdisciplinary Journal of Economics & Business Law Promotional A fresh look on U.S. tax policy and how it should be reexamined for the sake of social fairness and justice Long Description How America was Tricked on Tax Policy explains how regular citizens were "tricked" by the outdated view of economists that much heavier taxation of labor rather than capital is economically justifiable.
