Even as they became fabulously wealthy, the rich have seen their taxes collapse to levels last seen in the 1920s. Meanwhile, working-class Americans have been asked to pay more. The Triumph of Injustice is a forensic investigation into this dramatic transformation. Emmanuel Saez and Gabriel Zucman, economists who revolutionized the study of inequality, demonstrate how the super-rich pay a lower tax rate than everybody else. In crystalline prose, they dissect the deliberate choices and the sins of indecision that have fueled this trend: the gradual exemption of capital owners; the surge of a new tax-avoidance industry; and, most critically, tax competition between nations. It is not too late to change course. Instead of competition, we could choose cooperation, finding ways to create a tax regime that serves universal, democratic ends. The Triumph of Injustice offers a visionary and practical reinvention of taxes for that globalized world. 4aRich peoplexTaxation zUnited States. 4aTax incidencezUnited States. 4aIncome distributionzUnited States. 4aTaxationzUnited States. 4aEqualityzUnited States.1 aZucman, Gabriel.  2lcccBK  00104070aPNLIBbPNLIBcGENd2021-06-17oHJ4653.R6 S249 2020pPNLIB21060618r2021-06-17w2021-06-17yBK  c804d804
