ABOUT THE PROGRAM
California’s budget woes have focused attention on a key problem: revenue volatility. The state could reduce volatility – and improve its business climate – by moving toward greater use of consumption taxes, those based on goods or services consumed in the state rather than on income earned here. Economist Alan Auerbach will discuss five options for consumption-based tax reforms.
