Of course not, I like most of us mere peons wait for the online text.
You should get an .EDU email address. Maybe you should check with your buddies at the AFT. Looking at the front page of "Would the FairTax Raise or Lower Marginal and Average Tax Rates," I notice this:
We thank FairTax.org for research support and Jane Gravelle and Alexi Sluchynsky for very helpful discussions and suggestions.


As I suspected, this is bought and paid for research by the Americans for Fair Taxation.

I see you ride on a institutional achedemic membership. Good information to know.

 

Maybe you should check with your buddies at the AFT.

Since I'm not an employee of their's, I doubt that would be of much value I contrary to your beliefs.

I'll wait for $5 non-subscriber copy or AFT promised online copy that they have indicated to me they will provide when I checked with them to find out if they could provide some information on the paper.

Looking at the front page of "Would the FairTax Raise or Lower Marginal and Average Tax Rates," I notice this:

Seeing as FairTax.org are the authors and originators of the bill would you expect Kotlikoffto to request information from them. I find it interesting that Jane Gravelle of the Congressional Research Service and and Alexi Sluchynsky from the Kosovo Ministry of Economy and Finance were involved as well. That is good information to know.

Think maybe CSR and KMEF are in cahoots too?. Looks alot like an international conspiracy to me.

In the past, your criticism has been that the sales tax studies weren't published in respected economic journals and therefore were't subject to peer review. I guess you have to shift your attack mode now, huh?

So how is the Nightmare Tax coming now? Any economic reports coming out that we can look for? I'm sure they won't be paid for by supporters of the Nightmare tax.
