The Two-Handed Economist
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
The Center for Tax and Budget Policy provides in-depth policy analysis and recommendations on national and international economic issues, with a focus on corporate and individual taxation, government spending, and economic growth. 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. Through rigorous research, media and political engagement, expert testimony, and research conferences, the center aims to shape public discourse and provide timely, actionable policy solutions.
