Check out this report Tax Fairness: Policy and Administration By Alan D. Viard Posted: Tuesday, March 6, 2007 TESTIMONY Committee on Appropriations Subcommittee on Financial Services and General Government (Washington) Publication Date: March 5, 2007 aei.org gregmankiw.blogspot.com comments to the blog post include mvpy said... Irrespective of political orientation, one must concede that more progressivity has serious side-effects. As the tax burden becomes more focussed, the majority has little interest in keeping gov incompetence in check. I mean, why bother if someone else is paying the bills? Im not sure what polisci says about this, but this seems to be a strong channel where more progressivity leads to worse gov outcomes. 2:43 PM Anonymous said... If so few people actually pay taxes that matter, why make millions of Americans file taxes -- resulting in a huge loss on productivity? Every administration and Congress vow to simplify the tax laws, but have only made them more complicated. Prof. Mankiw, care to comment on this Washington idiosyncrasy? 3:06 PM
