Then in 1978 California enacted Proposition 13, a property tax cap that Ronald Reagan hailed as a second American Revolution, setting off an antitax, antigovernment wave that has transformed American politics and economic policy. In The Power to Destroy, Michael Graetz tells the story of the antitax movement and how it holds America hostageundermining the nations ability to meet basic needs and fix critical problems.In 1819, Chief Justice John Marshall declared that the power to tax entails the power to destroy. But The Power to Destroy argues that tax opponents now wield this destructive power. Attacking the IRS, protecting tax loopholes, and pushing tax cuts from Reagan to Donald Trump, the antitax movement is threatening the nations social safety net, increasing inequality, ballooning the national debt, and sapping Americas financial strength. The book chronicles how the movement originated as a fringe enterprise promoted by zealous outsiders using false economic claims and thinly veiled racist rhetoric, and howabetted by conservative media and Grover Norquists taxpayer protection pledgeit evolved into a mainstream political force.The important story of how the antitax movement came to dominate and distort politicsand how it impedes rational budgetingequalityand opportunitiesThe Power to Destroy is essential reading for understanding American life today.\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #262626;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAutor:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMichael J.
