Competing tax reform proposals have dominated recent GOP debates, with candidate Herman Cain calling for a “999” plan and fellow candidate Rick Perry proposing a “flat tax” plan. We bring in two tax experts to look at what those proposals mean, and to help explain the sometimes confusing language of taxes.

Guests:

Roberton Williams, senior fellow at the Urban Brookings Tax Policy Center, a joint venture between the Urban Institute and Brookings Institution

Alan Auerbach, Robert D. Burch professor of economics and law and director of the Robert D. Burch Center for Tax Policy and Public Finance at UC Berkeley
