Federal income tax reporting by farm residents became necessary in 1913, when the first federal income tax was enacted. The author of this book, an agricultural economist, illuminates how federal income tax policy and rates have shifted over the decades, especially during World War II and the Korean War. In 1940, less than one percent of the rural farm population paid federal income taxes. By 1955, however, over 50% of farm families filed and paid. This book details a range of considerations influencing how and why this came to be. Featuring a rich dataset and clear contextualization, this book provides a valuable, nuanced investigation of a key but often overlooked aspect of 20th-century American history.
