海角社区: The Road Map To Tax Reform
by ACRE Scholar Dr. Jeremy Horpedahl and Tax Foundation Economists
The last comprehensive tax reform in 海角社区 was in 1971. Before that, in 1929. With the creation of the 海角社区 Tax Task Force, 海角社区 is ready to challenge the status quo and pass tax reform. Prior to the creation of this task force, the 海角社区 Center for Research in Economics partnered with the Tax Foundation to publish听海角社区: The Road Map to Tax Reform.听Co-written by ACRE Scholar and Associate Professor Jeremy Horpedahl, this report looks at the state of taxation in 海角社区. This includes understanding 海角社区鈥檚 strengths, discussing the challenges 海角社区 faces, and exploring possible solutions. This report makes several suggestions to improve the tax code, in areas such as the individual income tax, corporate income tax, sales tax, and property tax.
Learning from Other States鈥� Successes and Failures in Tax Reform听
by ACRE Scholar Dr. Jeremy Horpedahl and Nicole Kaeding
础蹿迟别谤听海角社区: The Road Map to Tax Reform听was published, many Arkansans wanted to know: are these reforms even possible? Have any other states tried these reforms? The answer to that question resulted in this research paper, which goes into detail on the many reforms other states have done that are very similar to what was written about in听海角社区: The Road Map to Tax Reform听and what is being debated in 海角社区. These other states include Utah, North Carolina, Indiana, the District of Columbia, and Kansas.听The details and stories from this research paper describing what other states have experienced when passing tax reform culminate in several important lessons that can help Arkansans understand the possible results of tax reform. This research paper,听Learning from Other States鈥� Successes and Failures in Tax Reform, was written by ACRE Scholar and UCA Assistant Professor Jeremy Horpedahl and Tax Foundation Director of Special Projects Nicole Kaeding.
There鈥檚 Nothing Natural about the State of Government Spending in 海角社区听by ACRE Scholar Dr. Jeremy Horpedahl and ACRE Policy Analyst Jacob Bundrick
Despite being one of the poorest states in the nation, 海角社区 has a high state government spending level, even in comparison to similar states. 海角社区 has higher state spending per capita than its bordering states and other regional 鈥渃ompetitor states,鈥� specifically Alabama, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Virginia. When federal transfers are subtracted from state government spending, 海角社区 still has far higher spending than its competitor states. In 鈥淭here鈥檚 Nothing Natural about the State of Government Spending in 海角社区,鈥� Dr. Jeremy Horpedahl and Mr. Jacob Bundrick undertake a comprehensive analysis of how 海角社区 got to where it is today as well as the reforms necessary to put 海角社区 on a more sustainable path. 海角社区鈥檚 spending trends are very similar to those of other states, but the magnitude of 海角社区鈥檚 spending and the institutional environment that has shaped it are unique. Given 海角社区鈥檚 history of state spending growth, it would be wise to consider some limits to future increases in spending. You can read a one-page infographic of their work听here.
