EU TAXES: November 15, 2018 Indications suggest that the Paris-led effort to impose EU-level taxes on cross-border digital services has stalled. Opponents correctly painted the effort as a blatant tax grab against American tech giants like Facebook, Google and Amazon — noting also that it would apply to revenue, rather than profits. But it was the objection by low-tax EU nations like...

PARENTAL LEAVE: October 4, 2018 In recent months, a vocal group of conservatives has joined with Democrats in arguing that it’s time for the government to correct a blatant market failure: The private sector’s inability to provide sufficient paid leave.

TAX REFORM: September 13, 2018 This week, House Republicans did what they do best: Offer to cut taxes and add to the deficit. Their three-part reform plan is round two of their goal to dramatically slash taxes and reform the nation’s tax code. The move is likely a political one, because it isn’t fiscally responsible. Yet it carries...
