The Tax Tea Part One with Brad Olsen

The Tax Tea Part One with Brad Olsen30. Sept.1 Std. 06 Min.

Tax is everywhere in this election — but how much are politicians actually telling us?

This week on Both Sides Now, we sit down with economist Brad Olsen to spill The Tax Tea and get into the stuff that tends to get left out of the campaign slogans.

Is our tax system actually fair? What taxes should we have — and what shouldn’t we be taxing? Is debt really the big problem politicians make it out to be? And what does a good tax system actually look like?

No “tax cuts good, tax hikes bad” soundbites here — just an adult conversation about where the money comes from, where it goes, and what voters should actually be thinking about when politicians start talking tax.
