Recommended Curriculum: Top Ten Tax Blogs
With the American Middle Class in dire straights, President Obama has appointed Vice President Joe Biden to lead a Middle Class Task Force. The opening meeting featured creation of “green jobs.” Biden might have decided to start with a fairly non-controversial topic. However those jobs are created and promoted, it’s a sure bet that tax legislation will be part of the “equation.” The same is true of initiatives in health care reform, energy, and education, the three top priorities of Obama’s agenda to build an America strong enough to compete and lead in the 21st Century.
Tax reform legislation will be a huge part of the agenda and fights over altering the status quo will be spectacular. Therefore, we need to educate ourselves and prepare for blizzards of tax policy rhetoric.
Tax Rascal has a list of Top Ten Tax Blogs. At the top of the list is Wayne State University Professor Linda Beale’s ataxingmatter, which is also one of the better economics blogs linked in my sidebar. Congratulations Dr. Beale!
