‘More Loophole Than Law’: A Case For The Repeal Of I.R.C. § 527, Mark E. Schlegel Feb 2005

‘More Loophole Than Law’: A Case For The Repeal Of I.R.C. § 527, Mark E. Schlegel

ExpressO

This note advocates the repeal of I.R.C. § 527, which provides a tax exemption for organizations involved in election-related activity. The groups which operated under § 527 in the 2004 election include the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, MoveOn.org, and American Coming Together. The note discusses how § 527 escaped regulation under both the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971 and the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act of 2002 (popularly known as McCain-Feingold). It examines the political reasons why the Federal Election Commission has not attempted to reform § 527. As a result, 527 groups have acted largely without federal oversight …


What Is Fiscal Responsibility? Long-Term Deficits, Generational Accounting, And Capital Budgeting, Neil H. Buchanan Apr 2004

What Is Fiscal Responsibility? Long-Term Deficits, Generational Accounting, And Capital Budgeting, Neil H. Buchanan

Rutgers Law School (Newark) Faculty Papers

This article assesses three basic approaches to assessing the future effects of the government’s fiscal policies: traditional measures of the deficit, measures associated with Generational Accounting, and measures derived from applying Capital Budgeting to the federal accounts. I conclude that Capital Budgeting is the best of the three approaches and that Generational Accounting is the least helpful. Acknowledging that there might be some value in learning what we can from a variety of approaches to analyzing fiscal policy, I nevertheless conclude that Generational Accounting is actually a misleading or--at best--empty measure of future fiscal developments. The best approach to providing …

Breaking The Glass Slipper: Reflections On The Self-Employment Tax, Patricia E. Dilley Oct 2000

Breaking The Glass Slipper: Reflections On The Self-Employment Tax, Patricia E. Dilley

UF Law Faculty Publications

Lawmakers and their staffs, in drafting tax legislation, often resemble Prince Charming looking for Cinderella with that glass slipper in hand -- rather than start from scratch and draft a completely new tax provision. It is frequently easier, faster, and more reassuring to taxpayers and tax practitioners to use an existing statute or approach and simply amend it slightly to make it fit the need of the new provision. However, problems can arise from this approach.

In the original Grimm Brothers' version of the Cinderella story, for example, the wicked stepsisters were each so anxious to be the chosen one …

The Small Tax Case Procedure: How It Works--Does It Work?, Christopher J. Badum Jan 1976

The Small Tax Case Procedure: How It Works--Does It Work?, Christopher J. Badum

Fordham Urban Law Journal

In 1968 the section of Taxation of the American Bar Association proposed an amendment to the Internal Revenue Code of 1954 to provide for a small claims division in the United States Tax Court. Such a division was thought to be a necessary alternative to the often expensive and time consuming tax litigation procedure in the Tax Court, the Court of Claims, and the district court. Congress adopted the proposal and it was incorporated into the Tax Reform Act of 1969. This Note will discuss the proceedings of bringing suit in the Small Tax Case Division and will propose ways …
