This new and updated edition of The Flat Tax—called "the bible of the flat tax movement" by Forbes—explains what's wrong with our present tax system and offers a practical alternative. Hall and Rabushka set forth what many believe is the most fair, efficient, simple, and workable tax reform plan on the table: tax all income, once only, at a uniform rate of 19 percent.

"From adjusted gross income to zoning and property taxes, the second edition of The Encyclopedia of Taxation and Tax Policy offers the best and most complete guide to taxes and tax-related issues. More than 150 tax practitioners and administrators, policymakers, and academics have contributed. The result is a unique and authoritative reference that examines virtually all tax instruments used by governments (individual income, corporate income, sales and value-added, property, estate and gift, franchise, poll, and many variants of these taxes), as well as characteristics of a good tax system, budgetary issues, and many current federal, state, local, and international tax policy issues. The new edition has been completely revised, with 40 new topics and 200 articles reflecting six years of legislative changes. Each essay provides the generalist with a quick and reliable introduction to many topics but also gives tax specialists the benefit of other experts' best thinking, in a manner that makes the complex understandable. Reference lists point the reader to additional sources of information for each topic. The first edition of The Encyclopedia of Taxation and Tax Policy was selected as an Outstanding Academic Book of the Year (1999) by Choice magazine."--Publisher's website.

We should be searching for the simple, easily understood answer for funding essential services of the federal government. STOP taxing INCOME! Use the Simple Tax System. It's Fair. It's Simple. It WILL Work! About the Author Daniel V. Carbaugh, BA, MS was born in south-central Pennsylvania in 1942. He graduated from high school in 1960, did a hitch in the U.S. Marine Corps and then, too soon, found himself back in his hometown in 1965 looking for a job. Thanks to skills recently acquired from his military service (and a little luck) Dan soon found his way to a forty-two year career with Westinghouse Electronic Systems in Baltimore. Along the way Dan earned an undergraduate degree from the University of Maryland and a graduate degree in Engineering Management from the Johns Hopkins University. Dan and his family endured twenty plus years as expatriates in Europe, South-east Asia, South America, and North Africa. He retired from engineering management in 2007 and moved with his wife to South-west Florida. Dan's interest in tax reform came as a result of caring about fixing the federal tax code so that he could finally understand it. Dan's personal website is TheSimpleTaxSystem.com and his tax reform website is NoMoreIRS.com

The first edition of The Growth Experiment, originally published in 1990 as a response to critics of the Reagan-era tax cuts, became a kind of bible for proponents of supply-side economics. This new and updated edition, which explores the economic effects of America's tax policy over the last five presidential administrations, makes a bold and timely argument against the centerpiece of Obama's economic policy -- increasing taxes on the wealthy. Lawrence Lindsey provides a data-rich argument showing that because of changes in human behavior prompted by tax cuts, lowering taxes on the wealthy "costs" the treasury far less than most economists calculate and creates an economic boon to middle and lower income earners. Sure to be controversial, The Growth Experiment Revisited is essential reading for anyone looking to understand the arguments at the heart of this most fractious of American policy debates.
