Taxes Hurt Economic Growth Says Vedder Study
The Nov./Dec. issue of The Taxpayer reports Dean Smith summarizing Dr. Richard Vedder of Ohio University who links high taxes with slower growth. States with high taxes grew 20 percent slower than low tax states, and generous growth paralleled 35 percent lower tax levels. Cross border and cross provincial moves illustrate tax effects on disposable income and business costs. Canada faces similar fatigue, with calls for less tax taken from pay. Canadian Taxpayers Federation notes.
