REVIEW #12: Taxing Taxes: How to Tax Capital and Labor in CEE? [EDITORIAL]

Olga Labendowicz and 4liberty.eu/April 17, 2020 /Leave a comment

Paying taxes does not need to (and should not!) be taxing. Quite the contrary – it must be clear, straightforward, effortless, and taxpayer-friendly. What every taxation system needs is thus sensible policymakers who would look at the state expenditures and think of the ways of improving the exiting system and tax collection mechanisms.

REVIEW #12: Meaning of Taxation: Effects of Various Taxes (Labor, Capital, Consumption) on the Economy

Tomasz Kasprowicz and 4liberty.eu/April 17, 2020 /Leave a comment

Taxation is an involuntary payment levied on various entities in order to finance the state budget1. Clearly, the tax burden is heavily influenced by the philosophy of the role of the state in the public life, as well as quantity and quality of public services rendered.

REVIEW #12: Slovakia Versus Carbon Taxes: A Serious Substitute for Existing Taxation or a New Tax Load?

Radovan Durana and 4liberty.eu/April 17, 2020 /Leave a comment

The final effect of the carbon tax is determined by the way in which additional resources are handled. Every tax results in reallocation of scarce resources for purposes less desired by consumers. Not only do taxes diminish the utility of a consumer, but they also have a negative impact on economic growth.

REVIEW #12: Sectoral Banking Tax: Risks, Impacts, and Possible Consequences for the Czech Economy

4liberty.eu/April 17, 2020 /Leave a comment

4liberty.eu/April 17, 2020 /Leave a comment

Currently, the Czech Republic does not have a separate capital gains tax for individuals or for corporations; capital gains are included in PIT and CIT. There are also a few cases in which capital gains are exempt, mainly pertaining to property.

REVIEW #12: Against the Flow: Can Bulgaria Survive Progressive Counter-Revolution in Labor Taxation?

4liberty.eu/April 17, 2020 /Leave a comment

During the late 1990s and most part of the 2000s, CEE countries reformed their tax systems with two key characteristics: reducing the relative burden of direct taxes and – probably more distinctly, at least for the rest of the developed economies – introduction of single personal income tax rates.

4liberty.eu/April 17, 2020 /Leave a comment

The fiscal burden of labor in the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina is one of the largest in Europe. Although living among the poorest countries on the continent, workers in Bosnia and Herzegovina pay a lot to a high tax wedge, which is over 40%.

REVIEW #12: Taxation of Labor and Capital in Poland: Recent Trends and Challenges

Aleksander Laszek and 4liberty.eu/April 17, 2020 /Leave a comment

The majority of people around the world complain about taxes they have to pay. However, in the case of Poland, it is not only the size of the tax burden that poses a problem, but also complicated and unclear rules in place.

REVIEW #12: Turnover Tax in Poland: Seduction by Simple Solutions

4liberty.eu/April 17, 2020 /Leave a comment

One of the most important problems of today’s liberals and libertarians is how to translate the idea of liberty into a possible realization that would bring at least a bit of freedom. Nowadays, in a world of sophisticated systems of taxation and welfare states, it is very easy to make a mistake.
