Recently, I chastised Senator Levin for his assault on so-called “tax havens,” pointing out that Levin’s agenda would fail to benefit small businesses, but instead “place U.S. corporations at a competitive disadvantage in the international marketplace.” Since then, Cayman Finance has taken issue with the Senator, reinforcing many of the points consistently made by CF&P […]

Congress wants to reduce tax evasion, but politicians are unwilling to address the underlying problem of low tax rates, so they continuously give the IRS more power and make it more difficult for law-abiding people to engage in commerce. A good example is the FATCA legislation, which is directly harming honest expatriates and also Americans with foreign investment. I recently returned from […]

In a new video released today by the Center for Freedom and Prosperity Foundation (CF&P), Dan Mitchell of the Cato Institute explains that the $100 million spent each year to subsidize the Paris-based Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development is a terrible deal for American taxpayers.

American taxpayers finance nearly one-fourth of the budget for the Paris-based Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, an international bureaucracy that routinely advocates for more government – including more taxes and spending in the United States. In just the past couple of years, the OECD has used American tax dollars to advocate Obamacare-type health policies, push for failed Keynesian stimulus spending, promote Al Gore-style carbon taxes, and urge the enactment a value-added tax.

The Coalition for Tax Competition letter highlights the inclusion of provisions taken from the “Foreign […]

The Center for Freedom and Prosperity Foundation will co-host a conference on tax competition and financial privacy on October 20, 2009 from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. at the Cato Institute in Washington, DC. The conference is aimed at educating the public policy community on issues such as tax competition, financial privacy, fiscal sovereignty and corporate taxation.

The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development’s (OECD) Global Tax Forum concluded today amidst widespread complaints about the Paris-based bureaucracy’s bad-faith actions. Delegates from low-tax jurisdictions repeatedly remarked that the OECD grossly mischaracterized events in documents that were supposed to summarize prior discussions and form the basis of future reports and actions. Andy Quinlan, President of the Center for Freedom and Prosperity Foundation, commented that, “The OECD engaged in a pervasive pattern of dishonesty in order to advance the bad tax policy of high-tax nations.”

The Center for Freedom and Prosperity (CF&P) announced today it will be in Los Cabos, Mexico, next week to help educate delegates at the OECD’s Global Tax Forum about the benefits of tax competition, fiscal sovereignty, and financial privacy.

The Center for Freedom and Prosperity Foundation (CF&P) today released a new video debunking the outlandish and mendacious rhetoric that President Obama has used to attack low-tax jurisdictions.
