Book Probes Tax issues Facing the Next President and Congress, Offers Policy Lessons

Eugene Steuerle’s Contemporary U.S. Tax Policy, second edition, details how federal tax policy since the 1950s has evolved and trains an expert’s eye on its considerable successes, shortfalls, and problems. He prefaces his account with an explanation of important tax policy principles and an overview of the main actors and their changing roles. Steuerle closes his engaging narrative with a perceptive analysis of President George Bush’s unsuccessful second-term efforts to use commissions to reform Social Security and to rewrite the tax code.
