ISBN: 9780593075173 - the joy of tax (7 Ergebnisse)

Paperback. Zustand: Good. In The Joy of Tax, tax campaigner Richard Murphy challenges almost every idea you have about tax. For him, tax is fundamentally about the ideas that shape the sort of society we want to live in, not technicalities. His intention is to demonstrate that there is indeed a joy in tax, and by embracing it we can create a fairer society and change the world for the better. Tax has been a feature of human society for a very long time. Almost no one gives tax a good press even though, as Richard Murphy argues, it has been fundamental to the development of democracy the world over. Whilst we may not like tax very much, in contrast it is clear that we really do like the public services which governments provide. So much so, in fact, that for most of the last 300 years, people have been more than happy for governments to run deficits by spending more than they raise in taxation. 2008 apparently changed all that. The issues of debt, deficits, cuts and austerity have dominated the political agenda ever since. Virtually every aspect of the government's finances and how to rearrange them in the forlorn hope of balancing the books has been discussed in great detail. Despite that, there has been almost no real discussion during this period about what tax is for and how it contributes to the creation of the society we aspire to. The book has been read but remains in clean condition. All pages are intact and the cover is intact. Some minor wear to the spine.…

hardcover. Zustand: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

Zustand: Very Good. : En 'The Joy of Tax', el activista fiscal Richard Murphy desafía casi todas las ideas que tienes sobre los impuestos. Para él, los impuestos se tratan fundamentalmente de las ideas que dan forma al tipo de sociedad en la que queremos vivir, no de tecnicismos. Su intención es demostrar que de hecho hay alegría en los impuestos, y al abrazarlos podemos crear una sociedad más justa y cambiar el mundo para mejor. Los impuestos han sido una característica de la sociedad humana durante mucho tiempo. Casi nadie le da a los impuestos una buena prensa, aunque, como argumenta Richard Murphy, ha sido fundamental para el desarrollo de la democracia en todo el mundo. Si bien puede que no nos gusten mucho los impuestos, en contraste, está claro que realmente nos gustan los servicios públicos que brindan los gobiernos. Tanto es así, de hecho, que durante la mayor parte de los últimos 300 años, la gente ha estado más que feliz de que los gobiernos tengan déficits gastando más de lo que recaudan en impuestos.
