In the 60-minute online discussion on the topic of "Tax reforms: Options and Challenges" withStefan Bach (DIW)andDominika Langenmayr(Catholic University of Eichstätt-Ingolstadt), moderated byChristian Leßmann(Chair of Economics, esp. International Economic Relations), we take a look at the current debate on reforming the German tax system. Among other things, we will discuss whether a simplification of income tax through flat rates is possible, to what extent a different income tax rate could influence the supply of labor and what effects - in view of wealth inequality - a reform of inheritance tax or the introduction of wealth tax would have.
