Georgia analysts develop special budget report

The Georgia Budget and Policy Center - - the same folks who wrote the Center's Doing Better book on progressive tax reform - - have developed a special budget report that extends the ideas in the Doing Better book for Georgia.

Called "Doing Better: Fair and Adequate Tax Reform in Georgia," the 12-page white paper discusses and quantifies various tax reform options that would improve the fairness and adequacy of Georgia's tax system. Many of the ideas are outlined in the Center's book in more detail. One idea not discussed in the Center's report but mentioned in the white paper is a consideration to revive the estate tax.
