@CFASocietyDC @andytuit @SRI_Natives the real question today is not what is the future of ESG, the question is:
Is there a future w/out the #ESG?, say Catherine Banat @rbcgamnews introducing the panel
(a very good, visionary start! đź‘Ť)

More on our new paper: This graphic shows how a wealthy person can avoid income tax on a huge % of her income. cbpp.org/research/feder…
But there are solutions!
Starting w/ways to tax more types of income: policymakers should repeal stepped-up basis & tax capital gains of affluent households when assets are transferred to heirs. We can do this w/o affecting the middle-class (Obama’s budget did this, for one).

We should also shore up the estate tax, which has been severely weakened. Policymakers could reimpose the tax’s 2009 parameters ($3.5M/$7M exemption & 45% top rate) & close various estate tax loopholes.
Or, replace the estate tax w/an inheritance tax.

Just released our new report (from @ChuckCBPP , Kathleen Bryant & me) - our contribution to the debate on how to better tax the wealthy. Thread:

There’s consensus that income & wealth inequality are large & growing (which hurts households of color the most, b/c they’re overrepresented at the low end of the income/wealth distribution).
Tax policy has contributed to these disparities, but can also push back against them.
Tax policy has contributed to these disparities, but can also push back against them.
Right now, the way we tax the wealthy is flawed. That’s partly b/c high-end income is taxed differently than most Americans’ income, which is mainly labor income (wages & salaries).
Most high-end income is from capital & pass-through profits, which often get special tax breaks.
