American Allegories Ep. 3: "The Oxymoronic Paradox of Taxes"
Manage episode 306863588 series 3005556
Taxes, taxes, taxes… Edit, edit, edit…
The first 'Aldous Orwell' visits for a chat about taxes, tax policy, tax brackets, tax rates and then some more tax stuff. In this part 1 of 2, Aldous & Spencer start with some basic linguistics, definitions and establish that -- at a minimum -- 'taxes' are more complicated than simply what fits on to a postcard.
While it'd be hard to believe that anyone would see this episode's title and not be super psyched by the tax-chat; there is effort to acknowledge the layers of complexity while also making the topic accessible without a tax degree. We also try to dispel some myths & cut through some rhetoric. Hopefully, listeners will feel we accomplished those tasks.
