This engaging and accessible book is a must-read for every
taxpayer, young and old. It explores the many forms of taxation;
how taxes are created, collected, and spent; and why certain
aspects of taxation are so controversial. "In this world, nothing
can be said to be certain, except death and taxes." Benjamin
Franklin wrote this now-famous quote more than 200 years ago, and
taxation remains just as important (and inevitable) today as then.
Taxes are a fact of life for almost everyone, and the public goods
and services they pay for are enjoyed by all citizens. While taxes
are undeniably necessary, the specifics of what should be taxed,
who should pay taxes, and at what rate remain hotly debated by
economists, government officials, and regular citizens. The first
in Greenwood's new Student Guides to Business and Economics series,
Taxation gives readers an in-depth yet reader-friendly look at one
of economics' foundational concepts. Using simple language and
relevant real-world examples, the book explores the different forms
of taxation, the necessary components of any tax, how taxes are
created and collected, and much more. It also highlights
contemporary controversies related to taxation, including whether
or not "sin taxes" actually discourage unwanted behaviors like
smoking and how best to simplify the tax filing process. Provides a
concise and easy-to-read overview of a broad and foundational topic
in economics Demonstrates to readers why taxes are important and
helps them better understand how tax revenue is spent for the
public good Includes a Questions for Further Discussion section
designed to stimulate classroom discussion and encour-age critical
thinking Offers an at-a-glance chronology of events related to the
history of taxation, allowing readers to trace the evo-lution of
ideas and practices related to taxation through history
