Yet there is considerable controversy about the key empirical links among tax rates, household decisions, and revenue collections. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe nine papers in this volume exploit the substantial variation in U.S. tax policy during the last two decades to investigate how taxes affect a range of household behavior, including labor-force participation, saving behavior, choice of health insurance plan, choice of child care arrangements, portfolio choice, and tax evasion. They also present new analytical results on the effects of different types of tax policy. All of this research relies on household-level data--drawn either from public-use tax return files or from large household-level surveys--to explore various aspects of the relationship between taxes and household behavior. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAs debates about the effects of proposed tax reforms continue in the 1990s, this volume will be of interest to policy makers and scholars in the field of public finance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Martin Feldstein\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0226240975\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780226240978\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Chicago Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/1996\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 300\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.26lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.28h x 6.30w x 0.96d","brand":"Martin Feldstein","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48086397780223,"sku":"9780226240978","price":87.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8edff851-08cb-43a2-b879-16c65091f7b6.jpg?v=1769094449","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/empirical-foundations-of-household-taxation-martin-feldstein-9780226240978","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
