Class 7: “Taxing and Redistributing” by UC Berkeley Professor Reich

Okay. Welcome to the second half of this course. Can you imagine?

We've already gone through half of this course. What I want to remind you all about is how the different weeks fit together.

In other words, rather than thinking of this course as a kind of survey course — we're doing a piece of this and we're going to do this topic and we're doing that topic —

I would rather you think of this really as an integrated whole,

and you ask yourself, how is it that this particular set of topics fit in with that particular set of topics?
