Subject: Re: Trumps Anti-Robin Hood Tax...
Here's a book rec. I have not finished this yet, I'll go out on a limb and recommend it anyway.
The Second Estate: How the Tax Code Made an American Aristocracy by Ray D. Madoff looks at our tax code and how it benefits the rich at the expense of the poor and formerly middle class. Madoff is a law professor at Boston College specializing in tax law. So she teachers her students how to advise their clients how to pay the least in taxes by taking advantage of the myriad loopholes in the code. She knows this is unfair and the book points out the inequities in the system. I am not far enough in to see if she offers any ideas of remedies. I won't go into the history behind the book's title, but it should be a warning to those benefiting from the current tax laws.
