The very highest-income individuals and families typically pay lower taxes, as a share of income, than middle-class individuals and families. Part of the reason is that much more of their income comes from investment and business incomes that are tax-favored as compared to wage and salary income. The very wealthy also benefit from tax rules and regulations that diminish taxes paid on inheritances. These features of the tax system reinforce income inequality, diminish economic opportunity, and reduce tax revenue. Bill Gale joins EconoFact Chats to address these issues. He offers suggestions on ways to reform the tax system to make it more progressive and to increase much-needed revenues. Bill is the Arjay and Frances Miller Chair in Federal Economic Policy and Senior Fellow in the Economic Studies Program at the Brookings Institution. He served as president of the National Tax Association from 2019 to 2020.

Jim Crow laws that prevented Black citizens from voting are clearly racist, as are redlining practices that excluded Black homebuyers from white neighborhoods. But what about laws and regulations that don't rely on disparate treatment based on race? Can such policies still be racist? Bill Gale explores these questions in his new research, including in a paper titled “Public Finance and Racism.” He is the Arjay and Frances Fearing Miller Chair in Federal Economic Policy, a senior fellow in Economic Studies, and co-director of the Urban-Brookings Tax Policy Center. Also on this episode, Senior Fellow David Wessel, director of the Hutchins Center on Fiscal and Monetary Policy, addresses President Biden's renomination of Jay Powell to be chair of the Federal Reserve, his nomination of Lael Brainard to be vice chair, and the big question confronting the Fed: inflation.

William Gale is the Arjay and Frances Miller Chair in Federal Economic Policy and a senior fellow in the Economic Studies Program at the Brookings Institution. He is the author of "Fiscal Therapy: Curing America’s Debt Addiction and Investing in the Future." He is also the Co-Director of the Urban-Brookings Tax Policy Center and served as senior economist for the White House Council of Economic Advisers under President George H.W. Bush from 1991-1992. The dominant narrative around our national debt is all too familiar: every dollar of federal spending is bankrupting the U.S.; harsh austerity will soon be unavoidable; taming deficits means crippling cuts to crucial programs. In this episode, Dr. Gale turns the orthodoxy of fiscal responsibility on its head, offers insights into the economics of federal spending during a pandemic, and discusses his progressive approach to reducing the national debt. Our discussion centers around Dr. Gale’s most recent book, "Fiscal Therapy." We begin by examining the origins of federal borrowing habits and exploring the history of deficit spending during economic booms – a fiscal pattern that emerged during the Reagan era and has since become the norm. Today, the gap between revenue and expenditures has as much to do with under-taxing as it does with overspending on entitlements such as Social Security and Medicare. While Medicare and Social Security are considered political “sacred cows,” an aging population and rising healthcare costs will bankrupt these programs, making significant reform a bipartisan political necessity. Turning to the future of the federal budget, Dr. Gale’s emphasis on raising revenue provides a fresh perspective to a largely stale discourse around debt reduction. There is a possibility for consensus, he contends, around several central features of his approach to taxation. He sees potential in a progressive VAT (value-added tax) – a tax on all consumption of consumer goods that funds Universal Basic Income (UBI) for the poor and the lower middle class. Former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers famously said that VAT faces political hurdles because “liberals think it’s regressive, and conservatives think it is a money machine.” Paired with a UBI, however, a VAT might be on the horizon, argues Dr. Gale. He is also optimistic about his proposal for a tax on all carbon emissions – a market-based compromise between Republicans wary of climate spending and Democrats hungry for tax revenue and climate action. Dr. Gale’s insights on fiscal policy offer important lessons for today’s spending debates. He makes a strong case for choosing economic relief over fiscal restraint in the current economic climate, promoting a return to economic growth in the short term, and finding a path to a balanced budget in the long term. Specifically, he praised recent congressional funding for education, public transportation, and programs such as SNAP. He notes, however, that falling state and local tax revenue, growing entitlement spending, and state balanced budget requirements make more federal aid to state and local governments essential. We concluded our conversation with a fascinating discussion about the evolving role of the Federal Reserve in the Covid economy, asking some of the most pressing questions in monetary policy: What are the flaws and contradictions in Modern Monetary Theory? How important were the corporate and municipal lending facilities created by the CARES Act? How long can today’s low interest rates last, and what implications do future rate hikes have for paying down the national debt? Dr. Gale left us with one hopeful comment, amidst the turbulence and rancor of today’s politics and the structural impediments to fiscal responsibility: that future generations will ultimately prevail over this generation’s debt addiction.

We're so excited to bring you guys another Dope Dad episode - this week we were joined by Arjay M: junior basketball coach, certified goofball and dad extraordinaire! ⁣⁣Sometimes in order to level up your parenting game, you have to give zero F's about what others think, which is exactly how Arjay grew up. We talk about his struggle to overcome the lifestyle he had to leave behind in order to become a present dad and how his kids became his best friends. We also threw it back to some embarassing stories from our childhood - did we mention Arjay is our cousin?? That's right - we took this opportunity to pay Arjay for back some of the effed up and embarrassing things he did to us when we were younger. All jokes aside, we love Arjay and the person he has become today, which is why we are honored to feature him as this week's DOPE DAD! ⁣Support the show (https://www.buymeacoffee.com/hamother)

We explore how these behaviors led to the team imploding, and discuss what we can do to help teams and PO’s who start showing the same symptoms.

Many middle-class Americans grew up certain they would achieve the same or higher level of success than their parents had: by going to college, working many years for one employer and retiring with a pension. But starting as early as the 1970s, that tradition started to erode, says Katherine V.W. Stone, the Arjay and Frances Fearing Miller Professor of Law at UCLA. She argues that the reality today is not long-term attachment, but short-term, episodic employment and other relationships to the job market, be it part-time work or as an independent contractor or an entrepreneur. It is a dramatic change with far reaching implications. Series: "UCLA Faculty Research Lectures" [Public Affairs] [Show ID: 28622]
