The Carbon Tax That Could Reshape American Industry
from The Tax Policy Podcast with Fexingo: Income Tax, Corporate Tax, and Fiscal Conversations · host Fexingo
In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore a proposal that has quietly gained traction in Washington: a carbon tax designed to replace parts of the current corporate tax code. They break down the mechanics of a revenue-neutral carbon tax, the political coalition behind it, and the economic modeling that suggests it could cut emissions by 20 percent while boosting GDP growth by 0.3 percent annually. They also examine the winners and losers — from coal-dependent states to clean-tech manufacturers — and what a border carbon adjustment would mean for global trade. If you've ever wondered whether a tax on pollution could actually be good for the economy, this episode gives you the numbers and the context to understand the debate. #CarbonTax #ClimatePolicy #CorporateTax #RevenueNeutral #BorderCarbonAdjustment #EconomicModeling #TaxReform #EnergyPolicy #EnvironmentalEconomics #FiscalPolicy #PolicyDebate #EmissionsReduction #GDPGrowth #IndustrialPolicy #TradePolicy #Economics #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
