Abstract
This paper examines the evolution of the power of the presidency and the political skills needed to be a successful president. The paper argues that there are two types of politics the president must master, retail and wholesale. Retail politics is face to face contact in the smoke filled rooms. The paper claims that in our age of modern media, wholesale politics has become often more important when it comes to getting elected. Campaigns focus on the media and the candidate must win the media battle. The paper also examines how the Clinton administration used the power of the presidency with examples of a policy success and failure. Furthermore, the politics behind healthcare reform and NAFTA are examined.

From the Paper
" It is generally agreed that America is facing a crisis in health care occasioned by the rising costs of providing health care along with an increase in the number of people who are either uninsured or under-insured. Some see this as a problem rather than a crisis, but even they usually do not deny that the public sees the problem as acute. The problem has become a major political issue and played a significant role in the last presidential election, and it remains high on the political agenda as the public waits to see what the Clinton administration and Congress will do about the problem. There are major arguments over what that proposal will entail, how it will be funded, and what its prospects for passage might be. The insurance industry is concerned about the nature of the health care system that will be developed and is own role in that new structure. The industry.."

"Now, disregarding all the statistical minutia that may or may not be relevant the author will make the following observations regarding the alternate model. This model is depicting the predictive power of the variance of the marginal individual income tax rates among all five income quintiles to the income tax receipts at the federal level. It is apparent from the model that nearly a quarter of the variation in the marginal tax receipts can be predicted through the marginal tax rate, ceteris paribus."

From the Paper
"This research compares, contrasts and critiques the U.S. Congress 1995 flat tax proposals with the 1986 tax format. The research also discusses the benefits and disadvantages of each for taxpayers. The Armey-Shelby flat tax, the most well known of the flat tax proposals, is based on the supply-side economics of former Housing and Urban Development Secretary Jack F. Kemp, who co-authored the Reagan tax cuts in 1981. Most of the flat tax proposals are similar in nature. All make major changes to the current tax code, which is based on the Tax Reform Act of 1986. The flat tax propositions are the first major proposed revisions of the Tax Code since that act.
The Tax Reform Act of 1986 was the first significant revision of the tax code since World War II, when the tax code was converted into a broad-based tax (Snow, 1992, p. 139). It..."

Flat Tax and Sales Tax, 1999.

From the Paper
"This research paper examines the potential advantages and disadvantages from a public policy standpoint of various types of consumption-based taxes which have been proposed to remedy the deficiencies of the current federal tax system. A flat tax, rigorously applied, would be far superior to the present system because it would be simpler, fairer, a more efficient way of collecting public revenues and consistent with optimizing economic growth. However, it would benefit disproportionately higher income individual taxpayers, certain property owners and business generally and impose crushing burdens on lower income and many middle income taxpayers who depend on personal services income for maintaining their way of life and who consume most of..."

"Where did the corporate income tax begin? How does it affect our economy? What is the future of the corporate income tax? Will deleting corporate income tax be the answer for the economy? What about cutting part of this tax? How does the corporate income tax help the economy? These are questions that will be answered in this paper as well as how the corporate tax is affecting our economy now.
The Beginning of Corporate Income Tax
"How the corporate tax began is an example of why tax systems can be worse than they should be and how little influence the economic profession has on government policy (Norton 2). Sometimes ideals look great when they are not that sound. Corporate taxes were used during wartime until 1909, when Congress enacted a 1 percent tax on corporation income. The rate increased until 1932 to 12.5 percent when the rate was changed to the progressive rates. Norton stated, ?Surtaxes on corporate income were added for ?excess profits? during both world wars. The highest peacetime rate, 52.8 percent, was reached in the sixties? (2). "

A look at reasons why people are generally against paying taxes.

Abstract
This paper explains that apart from the mere principle behind the wish to avoid paying taxes, there are also some concrete and even valid motivations for this trend. The paper explains that these include reasons relating to government corruption and the tendency of the very rich to evade their own tax paying responsibilities. Furthermore it appears, according to some, that the economy does not benefit from current tax legislation, and that this is mainly a result of the corruption mentioned above.

From the Paper
"Doubtlessly, taxes are necessary. The Government needs funding in order to provide its people with the highest quality of goods and services. Recreation and roads for example are maintained by means of taxes. Taxes, while applied for the benefit of society, are therefore not so much an evil as a necessity. One could therefore agree with Johnston in his assessment that taxes are the price for a civilized society. Nonetheless, Americans have a very negative attitude towards this issue, and perhaps not without reason."

Taxes and the Federal Debt, 2002.
A paper which explores how cutting taxes might ultimately help the growing federal debt.

Abstract
The paper explores how cutting taxes may ultimately be an important strategy in reducing the federal debt of the United States. The federal debt has been a long standing concern of American citizens, politicians and economists. Today, the federal government faces a projected gross federal debt of $6,118,364 million in 2005. The paper shows how governments have traditionally taken the stance of increasing taxes or cutting spending in order to reduce the deficit. These attempts have largely failed due to unanticipated budget concerns. It explores how, in traditional attempts to reduce the debt, cutting taxes was thought to be a way to decrease national revenues, thus potentially increasing the debt. However, many economists are now considering that cutting taxes may help to stimulate the economy, paradoxically resulting in increased taxation revenue through higher employment and better wages. The paper examines how tax cuts may prove to be a way to increase revenues, thus potentially providing a means to reduce the federal debt. It also examines President Bush's Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001 (EGTRRA, designed to cut taxes, reduce the debt, and stimulate the national economy.
From the Paper
"Critics however, argue that EGTRRA will ultimately fail. They note that misrepresentations in federal budgeting overestimate budget surpluses, including mistakes in long term costs of retirement programs from a budgeted $5.6 trillion to a mere 1.6 trillion. Further, they note that EGTRRA will reduce revenues through tax cuts. Ultimately, the critics argue that the combination of a decreased budget surplus and tax cuts will sink the EGTRRA (Gale and Potter).
If the critics are correct, and the EGTRRA fails, the government will be forced to increase taxes, reduce spending, or increase the public debt. As such, plans to reduce taxes may once again result in increased federal debt."

Abstract
This paper looks at the history and structure of environmental taxes. It addresses what they are used for and how it impacts the petroleum industry. The paper looks at worldwide taxes, with a more narrow examination of Canada and Brazil regarding the impact their taxes have on their petroleum industries. The research concludes that environmental taxes worldwide are having a positive impact on the industry as they encourage the reduction of pollution and waste.
From the Paper
"The effects that environmental taxation has on the petroleum industry cannot be ignored. The concern with the environment is not new. For several decades environmentalists have been warning world inhabitants that they were destroying future resources with the refusal to conserve and protect current resources. One of the most controversial resources on earth is petroleum. Petroleum has many uses that the world has come to take for granted. Heating, transportation, and other uses have become commonplace in just about every industrialized nation on earth. Millions of people use petroleum in their every day life. They use it as fuel in their vehicles, commercial transportation companies use it as well. In addition to transportation uses there are heating issues and industrial uses that are also heavily dependent on petroleum. As the industry ingratiates itself even further into industrialized society environmentalists continue to study the future. The pressure environmentalists have brought on various governments has been effective. Environmental taxes have been imposed around the world to try and offset the cost of the damage being done to the environment and the future of the world?s resources by the petroleum industry."

Abstract
This paper discusses how every citizen of every country is liable to pay some amount of money towards its government, which, in turn, utilizes that money in giving public facilities to the citizens. It highlights the different tax philosophies of progressive as well as regressive tax and provides various examples of each type of tax. It also justifies the local property tax and its necessity in towns and cities.
From the Paper
"A tax is a fee charged by a government on a product, income or activity. It is a charge imposed by the government on people, entities, or on property in order to raise revenue. If tax is levied directly on personal or corporate income, then it is a direct tax. If tax is levied on the price of a good or service, then it is called an indirect tax. The purpose of taxation is to finance government expenditure. One of the most important uses of taxes is to finance public goods and services, such as street lighting and street cleaning. Since public goods and services do not allow a non-payer of tax to be excluded, or allow segregation by a consumer, there cannot be a market in the good or service, and so the market needs to be provided by the government or a quasi-government agency with funds, which tend to finance themselves largely through taxes."
