Reviews"This book makes clear, cogent arguments in support of the property tax, emphasizing transparency and the need for autonomous funding for local government, while dispelling myths about regressivity and dealing with complex policy issues. . . . The illustrative case studies from around the United States make this a one-of-a-kind significant resource." -- Alan S. Dornfest, Property Tax Policy Supervisor, Idaho State Tax Commission, The term 'good tax' may raise eyebrows outside the tax community, but Joan Youngman's well-written and jargon-free book, A Good Tax: Legal and Policy Issues for the Property Tax in the Untied States , may convince even non-practitioners of the property tax's merits., "The marketplace for books written on the property tax does not much resemble the balance of views on the property tax. Youngman's A Good Tax might single-handedly remedy this deficit by providing an infectiously enthusiastic perspective on the property tax. Written using a clear storytelling format, the book is accessible to students in public finance, economics, and law at the undergraduate level. . . .
