Time to Cut Taxes?

from The Echo Chamber from Tortoise Shack

Please join us at patreon.com/tortoiseshack In this episode we dive into the "Cut Taxes" narrative that is dominating our economic and political media at the moment with NERI Economist, Ciaran Nugent. We dig into Ireland's topsy-turvy fiscal policies, the reality of our personal tax system, Ireland's tax (avoidance) system, the housing crisis, our weak energy transition, and the impact of international policies on Ireland's future. We also look at the current prominent economic debates, tired old government strategies, and the importance of resilient planning for sustainable growth. There's also some patreon-only predictions at the end...
