- The total gutting of the IRS will have one main consequence: a surge in tax evasion by the wealthy Working-class and middle-class individuals don't evade a lot, because they can't High-income individuals do, because they can & because an industry helps them do it
- The IRS is on track to lose nearly a third of its workforce this year after about 20,000 employees accepted the second deferred resignation offer, according to a person familiar with the matter. Read more: www.taxnotes.com/tax-notes-to...
- C’est la petite musique qui monte : en ces temps de disette budgétaire il n’y aurait pas grand-chose à récupérer en s’attaquant à la fraude fiscale ; l’argent se trouverait plutôt du côté de la fraude sociale. Malheureusement cela ne repose sur rien. Petit état des savoirs sur le sujet 🧵
- Come work with us!
- Pour réaliser 40 milliards d’économie, le plus logique serait de commencer par fermer la niche fiscale « milliardaires » qui leur payer de payer 0 impôt sur le revenu ou presque, et qui a elle seule coûte de l’ordre de 20 milliards par an www.alternatives-economiques.fr/gabriel-zucm...

- Make no mistake: the tariffs are not transactional, they are meant to generate $ Trump believes the income tax was a mistake (invented "for reasons unknown to mankind", he said yesterday) and wants to replace it with tariffs It's a coherent (if crazy) ideology. Better to act accordingly

- Once again, I must stress that there is a pretty obvious answer to this madness, which is to have a big, fat tariff on US oligarchs and their multinationals! gabrielzucman.substack.com/p/americas-o...

- En clair : Trump abandonne les Ukrainiens, s'allie à Poutine pour miner l'Union européenne et saper les démocraties mondiales Mais nos très grandes fortunes (>100 millions) se soucient davantage de la perspective d'un impôt minimum de 2 (deux) % www.lemonde.fr/economie/art...

- Honorable and commendable of Zelensky to hold his ground against Trump. What a contrast with Macron and Starmer. And now, please. Time for Tariffs. On. Oligarchs www.project-syndicate.org/commentary/o...
- If it’s a trade war Trump wants, consumers in Mexico, Canada, Europe, and beyond should unite to ensure that Musk and his fellow oligarchs feel the cost www.project-syndicate.org/commentary/o...
- A modest proposal for how countries should respond to Trump's (threat of) trade wars—comments welcome! www.project-syndicate.org/commentary/o...
- There is one good response to these nonsensical, indiscriminate tariffs: Tariffs for oligarchs! If Tesla wants to keep having access to the EU market, then Musk should have to pay tax in the EU www.ft.com/content/2f02...
