California voters have a lot of reasons to be wary of Proposition 40.
More on why from @jbhenchman 👇
Momentum is building for a bipartisan fiscal commission to help Congress address the nation’s $40 trillion debt, but its work should be complemented by additional budget and oversight reforms. ntu.org/foundation/detail/a-…
Regular reviews of federal programs, eliminating budget gimmicks, and strengthening accountability could deliver savings for taxpayers regardless of whether a fiscal commission succeeds.

I am guest writing in @AshleySchapitl 's Capital Commonsense today to share information on the proposed DC Business Activity Tax (BAT).

Congratulations to @NobelPrize laureate Robert Hall!
In addition to brilliant study of booms-and-busts, he is also the author (with Alvin Rabushka) of the Hall-Rabushka Flat Tax, still the most detailed and thoughtful idea for a one-rate income tax with no carveouts and postcard-easy compliance. Read more from @jbhenchman.

The cost of many everyday items would have declined last year and early this year without President Donald Trump’s tariffs, according to the New York Federal Reserve.
The cost of 67 categories of goods were 2.9 percentage points higher as of February thanks to tariffs, according to a paper from a team of researchers at the central bank’s New York arm.
Without the levies, the team found that prices for the products they studied would have pulled back by almost 1%.
