Taxing the Family

By Rudolph G. Penner

This essential compilation, edited by fiscal policy expert Rudolph G. Penner, tackles the thorny and often-overlooked ways American tax law and Social Security policy penalize or reward families, from the enduring marriage penalty and bonus debate, to the rising tax burden on large families, to the fairness of the estate tax and Social Security's unequal treatment of working wives and homemakers, offering readers a data-driven roadmap through decades of fiscal policy and family economics that remains strikingly relevant to today's tax reform debates.
