6 PREFACE Although I had heard of taxation as a child, I didn't take much notice of it until I read Sammy Davis Junior's autobiography as a teenager in the 1960s. His book mentioned the tax audit he was subjected to and the fact that he had to pay more than 90 percent of his income to the federal government. I was shocked that my government -- in the land of the free and the home of the brave -- could get away with that. It seemed grossly unfair that people like Sammy could do all the work and take all the risks and then have to hand over practically all of their earnings to some government. A few years later I read that the Beatles had to pay a similar percentage to the British government and that Michael Caine left England because of its high taxes under Harold Wilson. My interest in taxation was piqued when I received my first paycheck. I wondered what happened to a large chunk of the money I earned because it was not there. It had vanished before I could see it because the withholding tax rules that President Roosevel t signed into law forced my employer to take out a portion of what I earned and send it to Washington. It made me start to wonder whether FOR was as great a president as my father said he was. In a sense, the research for this book began in the early 1970s, when I first started working as an accountant while studying economics in graduate school at night. While working as a bank auditor I learned how people set up trusts to minimize the amount of their life savings that would be confiscated by the government when they died. Through my economics study and extracurricular reading I learned how the tax system was used not only to raise funds for government but also to encourage certain activities while discouraging others. I learned how government at all levels wasted billions of dollars doing unproductive things and things it shouldn't be doing at all. My parents and their friends were complaining about property taxes and the fact that they didn't really own their own homes because they had to pay rent to the government in the form of property taxes in order to keep them. I read that some elderly people in California had to sell their homes because they could no longer pay the property taxes the government demanded. I decided to specialize in taxation, not so much because of the good career path that such a specialty provided but because I wanted to help people to keep as large a portion of the money they earned as possible. I worked in corporate tax and had a small individual tax practice on the side. I
7 viii went to law school and also earned a master's degree in taxation. I wanted to learn as much as I could about taxation so that I could do the best possible job for my employers and clients. As I got older my interests shifted more into economic philosophy and public finance, although I maintained my interest in taxation. This book is the culmination of my years of study, practice and reflection. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it. Robert W. McGee September 2003
