| Increase eBay Profits With a Return Policy | | 2008-07-17 15:33:39 | | There are all kinds of people on eBay, decisive and indecisive. As a seller you are lucky if the person who purchases your product is someone who makes rock-solid decisions from the start. However the majority of people are less decisive and prefer to have a guarantee to fall back on.Offering a return policy might seem like a policy that would lower profits, not increase them. However experience says otherwise. By offering a return policy you as a seller are basically conveying two messages.First it gives the buyer peace of mind; they rest assured that if something goes wrong they can always reverse the deal and get their money back. That peace of mind is crucial if your want the buyer to bid up high on your products.Second it backs up the rest of your sales letter. A refund policy tells the buyer that you mean what you say because if you lie to them now all they have to do is call on you on it.Picture two eBay auctions.

| How Does Age Affect The Price Of A Long-Term Care Policy? | | 2008-07-17 06:36:46 | | As you grow old, some things like dinners out and movies become cheaper due to senior discounts. However, conversely other things become more expensive, and usually those things are insurance. As a result, when you are getting a long-term care policy, your age is going to have a big effect on the price of a long-term care policy. | | By: Crosby Finance | | |

| Cato Policy Forum on Presidential Candidates' Tax Plans | | 2008-07-14 23:00:00 | | The Cato Institute hosted a policy forum today entitled McCain and Obama: Comparing Their Economic Platforms. One of the three speakers, Dan Mitchell, summed the future of the American tax burden up quite nicely: No matter who wins, it's going to grow.Mitchell also offered a fair comparison of the two distinct tax proposals. Obama's plan, according to Mitchell, means "higher taxes on work, savings, and investment." He pointed out that politicians understand the economics at play when they tax activities like smoking: higher taxes, less smoking. Why then, he asked, would we want to increase taxes on work, savings, and investment?As for McCain, Mitchell states that his agenda is much better than Obama's at encouraging economic growth and development. McCain's track record, however, left Mitchell unsure of the sincerity of this election season proposal.To watch a video of the conferen | | By: Tax Policy Blog | | |

| State Lawmakers Promote Sound Tax Policy by Doing Nothing | | 2008-07-14 23:00:00 | | We'd like to thank legislatures in Florida and Virginia for promoting sound tax policy by doing nothing at all.In June, Virginia Governor Tim Kaine (D) called a special legislative session that was intended to raise $1.1 billion in new taxes for transportation. Richmond policymakers had lots of different ideas about how to do that, most of them quite bad. Kaine and Senate Democrats each proposed a varying menu of localized and statewide increases in the general sales tax, plus higher taxes and fees on hotel rooms, car sales, car registration, and real estate transfers. Senate Democrats also wanted to raise the gasoline tax by six cents a gallon. House Republicans flirted with some locally-targeted tax increases for the areas to receive transportation benefits, but ultimately passed a plan with no new taxes.The special session produced much partisan bickering and recrimination, but no new taxes, as the Republican House of Delegates and Democratic Senate could not come to terms on a | | By: Tax Policy Blog | | |

| China’s Visa Policy Threatens Olympics Tourism | | 2008-06-25 03:15:00 | | With the Beijing Olympics less than two months away, hotel operators, travel agencies, and foreign businessmen say new Chinese visa restrictions are proving bad for business, casting a pall over Beijing during what was supposed to be a busy and jubilant tourist season leading up to the Olympic Games.Chinese authorities acknowledged putting new visa restrictions in place in May — after foreign embassies reported fewer visas being granted and tighter, sometimes seemingly arbitrary, restrictions. The government did not release guidelines detailing the changes in policy; it often does not. But a foreign ministry spokesman, Qin Gang, said in May that they would be temporary.On Monday, Hu Bin, a visa official at the foreign ministry, said the ministry had no statistics on the number of visa denials, but that the new policies were put in place for “security considerations.”

| McCain's Energy Policy and the Electoral Map | | 2008-06-21 10:10:00 | | The rising cost of oil has prompted politicians and President Bush to come up with various proposals to ease the pain caused by record high gas prices and rising demand from other nations. In addition to pursuing green energy sources, many of the proposed solutions center around increased domestic exploration--that is, drilling in Alaska and off the coasts of California and Southeastern states. These proposals have been debated before, but what makes this latest round of debate particularly intriguing is the fact that John McCain has come out in favor of ending the ban on offshore drilling. This is significant because it represents a policy reversal that opens him up to charges of flip flopping, pandering, or even being in lockstep with President Bush, who also supports ending the ban.There's one other reason why McCain's reversal on this issue deserves further scrutiny.

| Obama Responds to Bush’s Attacks on Foreign Policy | | 2008-05-16 23:23:52 | | Senator Barack Obama wasted no time responding to Bush’s attacks on his foreign policy positions. On Thursday, President Bush spoke before the Israeli Parliament and stopped just short of mentioning Obama by name in saying that those who negotiate with terrorists are appeasers. “Some seem to believe that we should negotiate with the terrorists and radicals, as if some ingenious argument will persuade them they have been wrong all along. We have heard this foolish delusion before,” Bush said. Bush went on to say, “As Nazi tanks crossed into Poland in 1939, an American senator declared: ‘Lord, if I could only have talked to Hitler, all this might have been avoided.’ We have an obligation to call this what it is — the false comfort of appeasement, which has been repeatedly discredited by history.” President Bush also does not understand the difference between appeasement and talking to your enemies.

The spokesmen avoided controversial statements, and the audience of think tank personnel and reporters focused on questions of policy. Some subjects that drew attention were the McCain and Clinton plans for a temporary gas tax holiday, and the Obama plans to raise taxes on capital and wage income even above what Senator Clinton would. Three panels of issue-area experts spoke before the campaign spokesmen, on climate change, health care and tax reform.

And you wouldn't see stupid tax proposals like those that have come from Sen.

| Ron Paul Favors Barack Obama on Foreign Policy | | 2008-05-05 01:33:43 | | Ron Paul has yet to endorse John McCain for the Republican nomination but over the weekend gave his input on the candidates. Paul was a Republican candidate for president and stayed in the race until John McCain had the number of delegates he needed to seal up the nomination. Paul was asked during debates if he would endorse the Republican candidate no matter who it was. Paul declined to do so on every opportunity. Ron Paul favors Barack Obama’s foreign policy, “But that doesn’t mean that’s an endorsement,” Paul quickly added. Obama’s foreign policy of opening relations with countries that the Bush administration has been “punishing” by cutting ties with is a large aspect of Obama’s popularity. Obama wants to end the war in Iraq and bring our troops home. Obama was also against the war in Iraq before it started.

The nation’s home builders are switching lobbying tacks as the industry seeks relief from the mounting housing crisis.The National Association of Home Builders announced Wednesday that its new top priority is to secure passage of a tax credit for first-time homebuyers, worth up to $7,500, that’s part of a housing tax package approved by the House Ways and Means Committee.After intense analysis and internal polling, the association concluded that the tax credit was the most stimulative policy option on the table, said Jerry Howard, the group’s executive vice president and chief executive officer.“Our members overwhelmingly believe that this tax credit concept is just the ticket to get them out of the doldrums,” he said | | By: Tax Policy Blog | | |

| Bank of Japan Holds Rates Unchanged as Expected, Promises Flexible Policy | | 2008-04-30 08:21:31 | | As expected, the Bank of Japan held rates unchanged at 0.50% on Monday evening, citing a continuing weakening economic situation both locally and abroad, followed by promises to act flexibly versus uncertainties surrounding the Japanese economic outlook. Rising food and oil prices, along with the risk of a U.S. economic slowdown spilling into the global economy, were putting downward pressures on Japanese growth prospects. However, with interest rates already very low, the expected moderation in GDP would only be temporary, according to the statement released with the decision. The BOJ also cut its GDP target to 1.5% from 2.1%, adding that it expects core CPI to grow 1.1% rather than the previous 0.4% growth expected for 2008. The BOJ also said GDP and core CPI would average around 1.7% and 1.0% respectively in 2009.

| New York "Amazon Tax" Presents Policy and Legal Problems | | 2008-04-24 23:00:00 | | As part of the budget signed by Governor Paterson this month, New York has adopted the "Amazon tax"-a requirement that any out-of-state online retailer collect sales tax on purchases if the business does at least $10,000 worth of business with in-state affiliates. New York officials estimate the tax will bring in $50 million per year. New York's move is just the latest in a string of state efforts to abandon the physical presence rule of taxing out-of-state businesses. In 1992, the U.S. Supreme Court reaffirmed the rule in the Quill v. North Dakota case, holding that a state could not impose sales tax collection obligations on a company, unless the company has either property or employees in the state. Amazon has neither in New York. As we mention so often, politicians are tempted to increase state spending not by asking constituents to fund the programs they want, but instead by shifting burdens to hidden taxes on (faceless, non-voting) out-of-state businesses.

Whether it is addressing health care reform, economic issues, climate change, or reforming the tax code, a lively debate is unfolding amongst the three remaining candidates.

| Earth Day Blog Post: Tax Policy and the Environment | | 2008-04-21 23:00:00 | | Environmental issues have become even more front and center in recent years, and tax policy is in the middle of it all. Any introductory economics student will learn about a concept called externalities, whereby a market transaction between two parties (buyer and sellers) has some spillover effect on a third party that the buyer and seller are not concerned with. Externalities can be either positive or negative. The classic example of a negative externality is pollution. The buyer of steel has no incentive to reduce the pollution of the steel mill that goes into the air, while the steel mill owner has no incentive either. There are two solutions: allocate property rights for the air to some party (which can be transferred via sale) or impose a tax for the right to pollute a given amount of pollutant.The optimal amount of pollution from a societal well-being perspective in almost all cases is greater than zero, but it is almost always less than the market amount that takes place without | | By: Tax Policy Blog | | |

| NY Times Article Exposes Influence of Housing Lobby in Making Tax Policy | | 2008-04-15 23:00:00 | | Let's be straight. When you are going to let the National Association of Home Builders and the National Association of Realtors® tell you what is good tax policy, you might as well throw out everything you ever learned in ECON 101 or basic public finance. They aren't trying to tell you what is good tax policy for the nation. They are trying to tell you what is good tax policy for themselves. And despite what you may hear, policies that are good for housing are not necessarily good for the nation.An article in today's New York Times details the scary amount of influence that the lobbies in these industries have, as well as how they also try to manipulate public opinion on issues relating to housing tax policy. The Realtors® did the latter in 2005 with their "the world is coming to an end" scare tactics about the recommendations made by the President's Tax Reform Panel.As many bloggers covering the housing bubble have pointed | | By: Tax Policy Blog | | |

| It's Unanimous: Senate Housing Bill Is Not Good Tax Policy | | 2008-04-10 23:00:00 | | On most fiscal policy issues that come up in Washington, there is disagreement among reserach organizations regarding what is good or bad tax policy. But on the recent housing bill that passed the U.S. Senate and gave billions in more tax breaks for housing, the tax policy research community is in unanimous agreement.Researchers from the following organizations have stated that this bill is bad tax policy: Heritage Foundation, Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, Cato Institute, Urban-Brookings Tax Policy Center, Tax Foundation, Citizens for Tax Justice, and the Center for Economic and Policy Research.To put this diverse group in perspective, imagine if Ted Kennedy, George Bush, Ron Paul, Hillary Clinton, John McCain, Ralph Nader, Barack Obama, and Sam Brownback all agreed that a given bill was not good public policy.Unfortunately, it appears as if the lobbyists putting money in the coffers of the politicians are currently the ones winning instead of sound fiscal | | By: Tax Policy Blog | | |

| One Pollution Policy Outdone | | 2008-04-10 08:57:44 | | When you receive the Seal you will see global warming as the sign of the coming End-times. You will be interested to see how the emissions in China are growing so much they are far outpacing all the reductions of the countries who signed the Kyoto Protocol.Researchers at the University of California have used figures from the Chinese government to conclude that by 2010, Chinese emissions of carbon dioxide will be 600 million metric tonnes more than in the year 2000.But the researchers believe the true figures could be as much as twice the amount the Chinese government has claimed. The US government estimates the countries that signed the Kyoto Protocol will reduce emissions by just under 116 million metric tonnes.That means worldwide reductions right now (it is March 2008) and in the coming days are going to be only 10 or 20 percent of emissions growth in China alone.

| Honesty is always the best policy | | 2008-04-09 14:48:03 | | I admire people that voice out the truth and say it like it should be. I don't really like to cover up unless I have to. So it is refreshing for me to visit blogs that can entertain me. Honest and thought provoking blogs. Anyway, as for being a Filipina, I can very well understand why some of my fellow Filipinos voice out about how the Philippine families think. They can abuse their privilege for sure. And what I don't like is when I am trying to help someone then I would find out that the money was spent on something else. It does irritate me especially when I sent the money not intended to spend on the matter that I didn't know about. Boy, it fires me up. I just take the heat because of the fact that I am trying to help no matter what and with all that I can. However, if it is done over and over-too many times, then, of course, I have my limits in which I set my boundaries as I can only do so much and go so far.

| Senator Cardin's Homebuyers Credit More of the Same Terrible Tax Policy | | 2008-04-03 23:00:00 | | It's pretty ironic that there appears to be such widespread support in the United States Senate for expanding tax preferences for housing (see most recent Cardin press release which will be voted on today), yet such widespread opposition in almost every policy research organization in Washington, whether conservative or liberal.The Heritage Foundation opposes expanding tax preferences for housing. Howard Gleckman of the Urban-Brookings Tax Policy Center, yesterday wrote a terrific blog post explaining why they are bad tax policy. Dean Baker of the left-of-center Center for Economic and Policy Research opposes them. Of course, the Tax Foundation opposes all tax preferences for housing.Maybe those of us in our "ivory towers" just don't understand how tax policy affects housing, while these members of Congress are the true policy experts.

| Virginia Space Resupply Exemption Raises Policy, Legal Concerns | | 2008-03-30 23:00:00 | | The Harrisonburg (Virginia) Daily News reports on a bill signed earlier this month which exempts income earned from space launches or space resupply services from corporate and individual income taxes, so long as the services supply missions are launched from Virginia: The legislation amends the state tax code so that, starting in 2009, no tax would be charged on revenue from commercial human spaceflight launch services and training, or space resupply services, provided those launches take place from a facility in the state.The fiscal impact statement for the legislation notes that the impact of the tax exemption "is unknown, but likely minimal,"because of the lack of activity in this sector.While there may be a lack of activity now, there could be a great deal of activity in the future. Promising tax-free takeoffs is one way to help promote such space ventures.It doesn't hurt to plan ahead. Besides, the name "Virginia Space Port" has a nice ring to it. | | By: Tax Policy Blog | | |
