The Center for Tax and Budget Policy’s John Diamond delivers what a one-handed economist can’t: both sides of the debate on the economic issues that matter most.
About the Center

Its research addresses critical topics such as the economic impacts of tax policy changes at all levels, the distribution of tax burdens and wealth across generations, the sustainability of the U.S. budget, and factors influencing economic growth.
