For the first time in over a century, American billionaires are now paying lower tax rates than any other social group. Meanwhile, the middle class is asked to contribute more. Emmanuel Saez and Gabriel Zucman, two economists who have revolutionized the study of inequality, analyze the decisions (and sins of indecision) that have led to such a triumph of fiscal injustice. Combining historical analysis and cutting-edge economic insights with engaging, jargon-free prose, Saez and Zucman show how the end of tax progressivity ultimately shakes the foundations of democracy.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe United States, which was at the forefront of the fight for fiscal justice, has turned its back on its own tradition. If we want to prevent Europe from falling into an unfair and oligarchic drift like the one that brought Donald Trump to power, urgent action is needed. Although the deterioration of fiscal escalation in a context of increasing inequalities has been especially exacerbated on that side of the Atlantic, it is by no means specific to the United States. Fiscal injustice, one of the great political failures of our time, is a global phenomenon that demands comprehensive solutions.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\"Without taxes, there is no cooperation, no prosperity, no common destiny; there is not even a nation that needs a president.\"\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePraise for the book:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Armed with surprising new data, Saez and Zucman propose bold solutions.
