Kyle Pomerleau examines the effects of a sales tax, stating that while it penalizes earning, it does not deter investment or saving. He further argues that a properly measured sales tax would be regressive in nature, though its impact may be less severe in the short run than often assumed.
Pomerleau also highlights that implementing a sales tax could allow for the elimination of certain existing tax structures.
Pomerleau has previously highlighted the unique role of land taxes, stating that they do not impact incentives while emphasizing the significance of property tax cuts in influencing behavior in earlier analysis. In separate research, he examined U.S. income tax policy toward gambling and discussed potential reforms with co-author Alex Durante in a policy review. These discussions add context to his ongoing work on tax system restructuring.
