On this episode, Professor of Tax Law, Andy Haile presented his initial impressions of the proposed changes to the tax code. He described that each individual or family's circumstances would determine whether they would see increases to their taxes or have tax cuts. Specifically, one change is a proposed "block deduction" for families (with children) and a removal of the prior deduction per child. Professor Haile discussed the ramifications of the removal of tax deductions for state taxes - highlighting that many home and property owners may pay more due to the loss of these deductions. He clarified that mortgage and charity deductions would remain. Overall, it appeared that the reforms may result in tax increases for middle income earners and tax cuts for the highest 20% of income earners while the lower income class rates and taxes would remain unchanged. Andy reviewed the consequences of eliminating the estate tax and warned that the "base level rise" (on estate homes or properties that have increased in value - which are currently NOT taxed) may be taxed in the future. He clarified that the estate tax only applies to the highest valued estates (5.5 M. - 11 million+). Middle income estates may essentially pay an estate or "death" tax in the future (if the "base level rise" is taken away) while high income estates would not pay taxes. We discussed whether tax cuts for corporations should mandate that corporations hire more workers and increase salaries for middle income workers. Andy felt this would be too difficult (both politically and mathematically to quantify). I felt that corporate tax preparation could & would accommodate the accounting (and quantify) the additional hiring & salaried increases to justify continued tax cuts. I presented that both the corporation and workers would benefit so much from the work to make this happen that it would be worth it. As proposed, corporations would see a cut from 39% to 20% with zero requirements for the use of the extra money saved. I emphasized the need for change. Quantifying/justifying tax cuts for corporations would benefit ALL and would/could go over well - both politically and on paper - if it were presented well. Individuals would have simpler forms, and corporations could easily justify the energy to quantify their massive tax cut because the public would receive it so much better if it were realized fairly. We briefly reviewed the failure of "trickle down economics" and I highlighted to Andy that mandating the hiring of jobs and salary increases to middle income earners would accomplish both Republican & Democratic goals and help our capitalistic system turn back toward the original ideals that founded our constitution and our country.
For your Memorial Day weekend, I'm am amazed and humbled to post Hearsay Culture's tenth anniversary show, # 254, recorded on April 26 and aired on KZSU on May 6, 2016, with Prof. Lawrence Lessig of Harvard University, reflecting on the past 10 years of Internet law and policy, and his current efforts to fix democracy. On a day when he was scheduled to fly to Washington, DC to pay a fine for having been arrested on Capitol Hill protesting the state of our campaign finance laws, Larry came to Elon Law and chatted with me for an hour in front of a live audience. Larry and me before the interview! We discussed a range of topics, including Larry's assessment of his role in the Eldred copyright duration decision, his current proposals for addressing the crippling effects of our campaign finance laws on policymaking, his Presidential run, the parallels between the fix democracy movement and civil rights movement, and whether he considers himself an idealist. Along the way, Larry also shared advice both for parents and for aspiring lawyers; advice that has stuck with me, as a law professor with two young sons, since. Suffice to say, I'm grateful for Larry's return to the show, and for taking time out of an unusually busy day to celebrate Hearsay Culture's tenth anniversary! Moreover, I should note that I thank lots of folks and entities during the interview, without whom Hearsay Culture would not be what it is today (starting with my wonderful listeners). I am grateful for your support, encouragement and collegiality, and look forward to another 10 (!) years! Enjoy; I dedicate this show to you! {Hearsay Culture is a talk show on KZSU-FM, Stanford, 90.1 FM, hosted by Center for Internet & Society Resident Fellow David S. Levine. The show includes guests and focuses on the intersection of technology and society. How is our world impacted by the great technological changes taking place?
