The U.S. Income Tax: What It Is, How It Got That Way, and Where We Go from Here
Dissatisfaction with the US income tax has grown so high that attacks on it, and proposals to reform (or even abolish) it, now amount to an almost constant dull roar. How has it happened that ordinary Americans have come to regard the federal tax as unfair and tax protestors as heroes?

Good intorduction to U.S. tax policy
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
The U.S. Income Tax is a great way to introduce yourself to tax policy in the united states. It does a great job at showing the issues of why the system must be reformed. Also it show how political tax reform gets inside congress, and how this causes reform to stall. In the end it shows several diffrent, and inovative, ideas for tax reform. One of the key strengths of this book is it takes a totally non-partisan look at tax reform. Something that is rather difficult to do.The problems with this book come in being way to verbose. It could have easily been shortened. Overall a great book for anyone intersted in knowing more about tax policy!
