Getting Started in the Underground Economy
Author: Adam Cash
Publisher: Loompanics Unlimited
ISBN: 9780915179466
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 161
Book Description
This section contains a collection of books on the underground economy and related subject matter. The books range from scholarly treatises to the nuts-and-bolts of moonlighting, bartering, evading price controls and rationing, smuggling, and dodging regulations and taxes which hamstring the "mainstream" economy. The underground economy is the free market. May your taxes be low, and all your trades be profitable... Every year, billions of dollars go unreported and untaxed in the Underground Economy -- and, contrary to government propaganda, it's not all drug dealers and criminals, but ordinary Americans like yourself that have chosen to not report all or part of their income -- to evade the excessive taxes the government keeps levying. This exciting book tells you how to join them! Don't believe the propaganda you hear about tax "cuts" -- whatever the Federal government cuts in taxes, it will make up in inflation and new taxes. Adam Cash tells you how to ease your way into the tax-free Underground Economy.

Hiding in the Shadows
Author: Friedrich Schneider
Publisher: International Monetary Fund
ISBN: 1451935285
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 23
Book Description
"A factory worker has a second job driving an unlicensed taxi at night; a plumber fixes a broken water pipe for a client, gets paid in cash but doesn't declare his earnings to the tax collector; a drug dealer brokers a sale with a prospective customer on a street corner. These are all examples of the underground or shadow economy - activities, both legal and illegal, that add up to trillions of dollars a year that take place "off the books," out of the gaze of taxmen and government statisticians. Although crime and shadow economic activities have long been a fact of life - and are now increasing around the world - almost all societies try to control their growth, because of the potentially serious consequences."--Preface.

Drivers of the Underground Economy Around the Millienium
Author: Rajeev K. Goel
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 24
Book Description
This paper provides a long term analysis of the determinants of the shadow economy. Using data for the United States over the years 1870-2014 we examine economic and political factors driving the underground sector. Results show that among the economic factors, greater economic prosperity increased the shadow sector, while greater openness to trade and a bigger government reduced it, with the effects of inflation being statistically insignificant. Politically, the efficacy of presidential vetoes and the effect of congressional party homogeneity are statistically insignificant. Further, the U.S. shadow economy increased during both world wars, but was lower during the great depression. However, in the short run, the relationship between the shadow economy and its determinants exhibit some remarkable differences.
