The Cinderella School Of Tax Reform: A Comment On Rabushka

Author

Listed:
  • FRED S. McCHESNEY

Abstract

The enthusiasm for the latest round of tax changes is hard to fathom. Tax “reform” has become an almost annual part of U.S. politics, as legislation is routinely bought and sold for the benefit of private rather than public interest. The 1986 episode was no different, and there is no reason to believe that the changes will last long.
