Why tax is fun: In conversation with Michael Keen

Why tax is fun: In conversation with Michael Keen

Nick Spencer speaks to Michael Keen
Länge: 34:30
The late great American novelist David Foster Wallace, who had worked in a tax office, once remarked, “The whole subject of tax policy and administration is dull. Massively and spectacularly dull.” But he was wrong, massively and spectacularly wrong. Tax is ultimately about the different ways we live together, and express our values - and there is nothing more interesting than that.
In this episode, Nick Spencer talks to Michael Keen and his book Rebellion, Rascals, and Revenue.
