Tax Shift - How to Help the Economy, Improve the Environment, and Get the Tax Man off Our Backs - - by Alan Thein Durning, Yoram Bauman, and Rachel Gusset. Right now, we tax things we want, like income and productivity, instead of things we would rather have less of, like pollution and resource depletion. It's especialy ironic that we then have to raise even more tax money to clean up the messes encouraged by our present system. The idea is not to raise or lower taxes, but to shift what is taxed.
