About This Event
It is often thought that entrepreneurial activity generates important spillovers for the economy that justify tax subsidies for these business ventures. At this event, Roger Gordon, professor of economics at the University of California at San Diego,demonstrates how features of the personal and corporate income tax codes affect the incentives to be an entrepreneur. Gordon finds significant evidence that income taxes have had a large impact on entrepreneurial behavior. Eric M. Engen of AEI and Len Burman, a senior fellow at the Urban Institute and a research professor at Georgetown University, comment on Gordon's findings.
