Even as they became fabulously wealthy, the ultra-rich have had their taxes collapse to levels last seen in the 1920s. Meanwhile, working-class Americans have been asked to pay more. The Triumph of Injustice presents a forensic investigation into this dramatic transformation, written by two economists who revolutionized the study of inequality. Eschewing anecdotes and case studies, Emmanuel Saez and Gabriel Zucman offer a comprehensive view of America's tax system, based on new statistics covering all taxes paid at all levels of government. Their conclusion? For the first time in more than a century, billionaires now pay lower tax rates than their secretaries.

Blending history and cutting-edge economic analysis, and writing in lively and jargon-free prose, Saez and Zucman dissect the deliberate choices (and sins of indecision) that have brought us to today: the gradual exemption of capital owners; the surge of a new tax avoidance industry, and the spiral of tax competition among nations. With clarity and concision, they explain how America turned away from the most progressive tax system in history to embrace policies that only serve to compound the wealth of a few.

But The Triumph of Injustice is much more than a laser-sharp analysis of one of the great political and intellectual failures of our time. Saez and Zucman propose a visionary, democratic, and practical reinvention of taxes, outlining reforms that can allow tax justice to triumph in today's globalized world and democracy to prevail over concentrated wealth.

A pioneering companion website allows anyone to evaluate proposals made by the authors, and to develop their own alternative tax reform at taxjusticenow.org.

Perfect to travel with or throw in sports bags. Purchased for my athlete college student and she keeps it in her basketball bag to take jewelry off before practice and keep everything safe and untangled. There’s a spot for every type of jewelry. It’s sturdy, closes and seals and if perfect!

Adorable, functional, and great for travel
Color: A1 - Pink 1 Pack
Adorable, good quality, small but fits enough for travel. I’ve had no problems with the zipper or any of the inside functions. I like that you can remove one of the pieces to fit something larger in it.

This was a gift for my teen daughter she’s collecting jewelry now and this was perfect for her. This is also great for traveling! It holds lots of little pieces and feels soft. This is a great gift idea. Months later and it’s still in great condition. Easy to use and take along anywhere.
