Why do people actually pay taxes — out of fear of fines or because they trust the state? Benjamin Kanthak talks about this with economist Prof. Benno Torgler. The basis is an international study on tax compliance, which shows that it is often less financial incentives that are decisive than psychological factors such as fairness, trust and the feeling that everyone is doing their part. Especially against the backdrop of the current tax debates in Australia, it is also about the question of how stable a tax system really is when public trust dwindles. - Warum zahlen Menschen eigentlich Steuern – aus Angst vor Strafen oder weil sie dem Staat vertrauen? Genau darüber spricht Benjamin Kanthak mit dem Ökonomen Prof. Benno Torgler. Grundlage ist eine internationale Studie zur Steuermoral, die zeigt: Entscheidend sind oft weniger finanzielle Anreize als vielmehr psychologische Faktoren wie Fairness, Vertrauen und das Gefühl, dass alle ihren Beitrag leisten. Gerade vor dem Hintergrund der aktuellen Steuerdebatten in Australien geht es dabei auch um die Frage, wie stabil ein Steuersystem wirklich ist, wenn das Vertrauen der Bevölkerung schwindet.

By Doug Green “Tax compliance isn't just a regulatory issue—it's becoming a critical part of how service providers scale globally.” On the opening day of Channel Partners Conference & Expo in Las Vegas, I caught up with Spencer Lee of Telin to discuss an often-overlooked issue in unified communications: tax compliance. Lee, my first guest of the show, framed the conversation around a growing challenge for service providers and channel partners operating across borders. As UCaaS, CCaaS, and CPaaS offerings expand globally, tax exposure—particularly indirect taxes tied to communications services—is becoming more complex and harder to ignore. Telin positions itself as a channel-first provider, delivering the underlying infrastructure partners need to go to market. That includes SIP trunking, hosting, hardware, and integration support—essentially a bundled backend designed to simplify deployment for partners in the unified communications space. But increasingly, that backend must also account for compliance. As Lee explained, providers entering new markets often underestimate the tax implications tied to telecom services. These aren't traditional corporate taxes—they're jurisdiction-specific telecom taxes, regulatory fees, and compliance requirements that vary widely by country and even region. For channel partners, this creates both risk and opportunity. On one hand, failure to properly account for telecom taxes can lead to penalties, billing complications, and margin erosion. On the other, partners who align with infrastructure providers that manage these complexities can accelerate global expansion without taking on that burden directly. Telin's approach is to abstract much of that complexity away from the partner. By handling infrastructure, interconnection, and compliance considerations within its platform, the company enables partners to focus on customer relationships and service delivery. The conversation highlights a broader trend emerging across the channel: as communications becomes more global and software-driven, operational details like tax compliance are moving from back-office concerns to strategic differentiators. For partners attending Channel Partners this week, it's a reminder that winning in UCaaS isn't just about features—it's about everything behind the scenes that makes those services viable at scale.

We'd love to hear from you. What are your thoughts and questions?In this conversation, Ashley Tison, a tax strategist and co-founder of OZPros, discusses the significance of Opportunity Zones as a powerful tax incentive for investors. He explains how these zones were created to attract private capital into underserved areas, allowing investors to defer and potentially eliminate capital gains taxes. The discussion covers the mechanics of investing in Opportunity Zones, the importance of community impact, and how family offices approach capital deployment strategically. Tison emphasizes the need for compliance and the common pitfalls investors face, particularly the critical 180-day window for capital gains reinvestment.Main Points:Opportunity Zones are designed to attract private capital into underserved areas.Investors can defer capital gains taxes by investing in Qualified Opportunity Funds.The program has mobilized approximately $150 billion into Opportunity Zones.Investing in these zones inherently creates positive community impact.Family offices prioritize long-term wealth creation and risk management.Investors should be aware of the 180-day reinvestment deadline to avoid penalties.Not all investments in Opportunity Zones are created equal; due diligence is essential.The program allows for a variety of investment types, including real estate and operating businesses.Common mistakes include failing to act within the 180-day window and misunderstanding the nature of Opportunity Zones.Successful investments require a focus on both financial returns and community outcomes.Connect With Ashley Tison:ashley@ozpros.comozpros.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/ashley-tisonhttps://www.youtube.com/@OZPros/videos

Send a text Jeff and Scott talk with Tyler Menzer, an assistant professor of accounting at Texas Christian University, about his recent research on cryptocurrency tax reporting. In the project, Tyler submitted the same set of cryptocurrency transactions to multiple crypto tax software and reporting services, many of which present themselves as tracking or reporting tools rather than tax preparation providers. He found that these services often produced very different calculations of taxable income from identical transactions. The conversation explores why these discrepancies arise and uses them as a starting point for a broader discussion of cryptocurrency taxation, compliance, and reporting challenges. 

Can proper compliance really add millions to your business valuation? In today's episode, we connect with Reuben Mattinson, Founder and CEO of RJM Tax Exemption, to explore what it means to build truly exit-ready operations in the world of ecommerce… Founded in 2019, RJM was born out of firsthand frustration. When Reuben and his team launched their own ecommerce business in the U.S., they quickly found themselves overwhelmed by IRS rules, registrations, state sales tax collection, and conflicting guidance from lawyers, accountants, banks, and revenue departments.  After investing significant time untangling the complexity, they realized other sellers were facing the same challenges — and RJM began. What started with just 10 clients has since grown into a global consultancy serving over 5,000 businesses worldwide, helping ecommerce brands stay compliant, scalable, and acquisition-ready. Hit play to find out: How Reuben's unique background fuels RJM's mission. Examples of exit strategies done right and horribly wrong. How tax readiness impacts valuation and exits. Reuben's path to entrepreneurship is anything but conventional. After earning degrees in physiotherapy in 2012 and in science teaching in 2013, he began building RJM alongside his studies. In under three years, he scaled the company from infancy into a multi-million-dollar global ecommerce consultancy, achieving #1 Trustpilot ratings in the U.S. by age 30.

Randy Dillard, Sales and Transaction Tax Lead at TaxConnex, joined Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, for a Cloud Communications Alliance (CCA) podcast focused on one of the most complex—and often underestimated—issues facing cloud communications providers today: telecommunications tax compliance. Dillard explained that TaxConnex serves as a specialized outsourcing partner for telecom and transaction tax compliance, working closely with regulatory experts to deliver a unified approach that spans sales and use tax, telecom-specific taxes, and state and local filing obligations. Unlike general accounting firms, TaxConnex is purpose-built for the telecom and cloud communications industry, where tax requirements can extend far beyond state-level filings into counties, cities, and even ZIP-code-level jurisdictions. He emphasized that telecom taxation is fundamentally different from standard sales tax, with layered obligations that can include “tax on tax,” recurring billing changes, credits, and constant regulatory updates. With more than 50 states, thousands of local jurisdictions, and frequent filing deadlines, providers face significant risk if compliance processes are not handled accurately and consistently. Dillard also stressed the importance of timing, noting that providers should engage a telecom tax specialist before launching new services or expanding into new markets—not after revenue is already flowing. “It often makes sense to pause and speak with a telecom tax advisor before you open that honeypot,” Dillard said. “Understanding your obligations upfront can save you from costly penalties, audits, and surprises down the road.” TaxConnex's role, he explained, goes beyond filing returns. The company provides monthly tax liability reporting that shows what has been collected, where it is assigned, and how it will be remitted—giving providers visibility and confidence that nothing is slipping through the cracks. This becomes even more critical as AI-driven services and usage-based models create unexpected spikes in transactions and tax exposure. As an active member and sponsor within the Cloud Communications Alliance, TaxConnex views its role as helping demystify telecom tax compliance so providers can focus on growth, innovation, and customer success—while staying compliant in an increasingly complex regulatory environment.

Blockiert dein Code Review gerade mal wieder den Release oder ist es der unsichtbare Klebstoff, der Wissen im Team verteilt? In dieser Episode gehen wir der Frage auf den Grund, warum Reviews weit mehr sind als ein einfaches “looks good to me” und was sie mit sozialer Interaktion, Teamdynamik und Wissensverteilung zu tun haben. Wir sprechen mit Prof. Michael Dorner, Professor für Software Engineering an der TH Nürnberg, der seit Jahren zur Rolle von Code Reviews in der Softwareentwicklung forscht: mit Code Review Daten von Microsoft, Spotify oder trivago.

“The US system of tax reporting and FBAR reporting is exceedingly complex, and materially differs from the reporting requirements in most other countries in the Western world.” So says Dan Price, my guest on this week's Ask An Expert show. That's why there's a high chance of non-compliance if you're an expat in the US, and why you need to hear this week's episode. Dan is a distinguished tax attorney, two years into running his own firm but with almost 20 years of experience at the IRS Office of Chief Counsel. While there he established programs designed to aid individuals in becoming tax compliant, and covered both criminal and civil IRS audits. He knows his stuff, so it's a privilege to have him on the show to take us behind the scenes at the IRS and give you expert advice on staying tax compliant. We talk about:·      The cost of compliance for middle-class tax payers. What qualifies as middle-class? And what are the costs of being in non-compliance? Hint: they're significant.·      How to streamline your filing with the IRS. As Dan explains, there are myriad systems and procedures in place to catch wilful non-compliance. You can't beat the algorithm, so don't try.·      The difference between true ignorance, or wilful blindness, and knowingly ignoring tax obligations. if you're an expat or an immigrant and you came here mid-career, there's a very good chance you're in some form of non-compliance. Don't bury your head in the sand. It's very possible the IRS already has information about you and it might one day catch up with you. There are solutions, palatable solutions, as you'll hear in this episode.For more information on Daniel N Price LLC, visit pricetaxlaw.comWe're the Brits in America is affiliated with Plan First Wealth LLC, an SEC registered investment advisor.

This Day in Legal History: Brady v. MarylandOn May 13, 1963, the U.S. Supreme Court issued its landmark ruling in Brady v. Maryland, fundamentally reshaping criminal procedure and the obligations of prosecutors. The case involved John Brady, who was convicted of murder in Maryland state court. Although he admitted involvement, he claimed he did not commit the actual killing. During the trial, the prosecution withheld a statement from Brady's co-defendant that supported this claim. After Brady was sentenced to death, his attorneys discovered the statement and appealed, arguing that suppression of such exculpatory evidence violated his constitutional rights.The Supreme Court agreed, holding in a 7–2 decision that suppression by the prosecution of evidence favorable to an accused who has requested it violates due process, regardless of whether the prosecution acted in good faith or bad faith. This principle became known as the Brady Rule, and it remains one of the cornerstones of a fair trial in American criminal justice. The Court emphasized that the goal of a trial is not to win a case but to ensure justice is done.The Brady decision led to a broader understanding of prosecutorial obligations and placed enforceable limits on government discretion. Over time, it has been extended and clarified through subsequent cases, shaping what material must be disclosed and when. Still, Brady violations continue to arise in courts, often forming the basis for appeals or post-conviction relief. The ruling reflects a deep constitutional commitment to due process and underscores the state's duty to act not only as an advocate but also as a guardian of fairness.President Donald Trump abruptly fired Shira Perlmutter, the Register of Copyrights, on May 10, 2025, just two days after also dismissing Librarian of Congress Carla Hayden, who had appointed Perlmutter in 2020. The U.S. Copyright Office confirmed the termination via a statement, noting that Perlmutter received an email from the White House informing her that her role was ended “effective immediately.” The administration has not publicly explained the firing, and Perlmutter has not commented.The move came shortly after the Copyright Office released a report addressing how generative AI models interact with copyright law. The report urged caution on government intervention and emphasized the importance of voluntary licensing systems. It drew a line between research-related uses of AI, which are unlikely to harm copyright holders, and commercial uses that replicate copyrighted content, especially when done through unauthorized access—arguing the latter may exceed fair use.Rep. Joe Morelle (D-N.Y.) condemned the dismissal, calling it an "unprecedented power grab" and linking it to Perlmutter's refusal to support Elon Musk's push to use copyrighted material for AI training. The timing of her removal, coming one day after the report's release, has intensified speculation about political motives behind the firing.Trump Terminates US Copyright Office Director in New Shakeup (1)Everything is bigger in Texas, including policy failures. The latest—an expensive exercise in public policy theater that trades taxpayer dollars for ideological victory laps. With Governor Greg Abbott poised to sign Senate Bill 2 into law, Texas is now on track to funnel $1 billion away from public education and into private schools, starting in the 2026-27 school year. And make no mistake: this isn't about "school choice"—it's about abandoning public schools under the rhetorical cover of parental empowerment.Supporters say it's about letting families choose the education that “fits their child's path,” but the real fit here is between a regressive policy and a Republican donor wishlist. Up to 20% of the funds will be available to families earning over $160,000—so yes, the state is subsidizing private tuition for households that already have the means. Meanwhile, the public schools left behind are told to make do with less.Texas already ranks 38th in the nation in per-student funding, and public schools are still reeling from the $7.6 billion lawmakers withheld last session to hold them hostage for this very proposal. Districts have been cutting staff, closing campuses, and hiring uncertified teachers to stay afloat. Now they're being told they can have their crumbs—so long as a chunk of the loaf goes to private institutions that aren't accountable to the same standards, can't be compelled to admit students, and won't have to administer the same state tests used to judge public schools.This is a policy that spends public money without public accountability. It privileges private choice over public obligation. And it's being sold with the same warmed-over talking points that ignore what the data keeps telling us: vouchers don't reliably improve academic outcomes, especially not for the low-income students lawmakers claim to be championing.But the most corrosive effect isn't just fiscal—it's philosophical. When a state government diverts taxpayer dollars to schools that don't have to serve every child, it's not expanding opportunity. It's signaling that public education is optional, a backup plan, a place for the kids who didn't win the voucher lottery.Texas isn't innovating—it's retreating. And when the dust settles, it won't be the parents cashing the checks who pay the highest price. It'll be the millions of Texas students left in schools that the state funded just enough to fail.Private school vouchers head to Abbott's desk to become lawMy column for Bloomberg this week focuses on the quiet but dangerous implications of President Donald Trump's plan to reassign IRS criminal investigators from pursuing tax crimes to enforcing immigration law. This isn't just bureaucratic tinkering—it's a direct hit to the fragile deterrence model at the heart of our voluntary tax system. That system relies on the perception that the IRS is always watching, even if the chance of an audit is low. When that perception erodes, so does compliance.I argue that this shift weakens a key psychological pillar of tax law: the belief that evading taxes carries real consequences. Without the looming presence of tax enforcement, some taxpayers begin to wonder—sometimes out loud—whether they still need to play by the rules. I've seen this firsthand in conversations with clients and students. The risk of noncompliance starts to look more like a gamble than a crime.Public, high-profile enforcement has always served a broader messaging purpose: make examples of a few to deter many. But moving agents away from tax cases undermines that strategy and signals that enforcement is now a political tool, not a consistent application of law. Once that belief spreads, taxpayers may stop viewing payment as a civic duty and start viewing it as optional—especially if they believe others are getting away with cheating.I close by warning that this perception shift, once embedded, is hard to undo. Tax compliance is held together by trust as much as enforcement. Undermining one weakens the whole system. This is a public episode.
