'Finally, not just why but crucially how to tax the super-rich' GARY STEVENSON

'Read it, share it and let's get on with it' RUTGER BREGMAN

Why do billionaires pay less tax than you?

Billionaires often pay a lower income tax rate than nurses, teachers and almost everyone else - sometimes close to zero. This isn't tax evasion, it's the system.

In this explosive manifesto, Gabriel Zucman - the economist revolutionising the study of inequality - reveals how the ultra-rich dodge billions using havens, loopholes and political influence, while public services are breaking.

Until we understand the hidden rules that protect extreme wealth, inequality will keep rising and democracy will keep losing. This game-changing book finally shows us how making the ultra-rich pay their fair share is possible, and why now is the moment.

Critics Review

If you want to understand why you are getting poorer, and, crucially, how to fix it, you have to read Gabriel Zucman. Finally - not just why, but crucially HOW to tax the super-rich
Gary Stevenson, bestselling author of THE TRADING GAME
It's a taxing moment to be talking about taxing the billionaires. They are fighting back with their money, power and lies. This is a book that, soberly, and yet with passion and care, exposes those and builds the case that the world needs and can get them to pay their fair share
Abhijit Banerjee and Esther Duflo, 2019 Nobel laureates in Economics
This is economics at its most useful. Read it, share it, and let's get on with it
Rutger Bregman, bestselling author of MORAL AMBITION
