In this week’s episode we cover how the SEC is going to spam investors with a deluge of low-quality disclosures, the Supreme Court’s disappointing decision on social media censorship in Murthy v. Missouri, and the massive scope of Covid-era tax fraud. Our interview this week is with Scott Hodge, president emeritus & senior policy advisor at the Tax Foundation and the author of the new book Taxocracy: What You Don’t Know About Taxes and How They Rule Your Daily Life. We talk about deductions, perverse incentives, reform options, and the reason 18th century British buildings had so few windows.
