Professor Ray Madoff on How to Tax the Rich

Why do billionaires often pay lower tax rates than working Americans?
In this episode of the Sunlight Tax Podcast, I sit down with tax policy expert and professor, Ray Madoff, to explore how income, wealth, and inheritance are taxed in the United States, and why the current system often favors the ultra-wealthy.
We discuss wealth inequality, estate taxes, billionaire tax strategies, and the most promising proposals for tax reform. If you've ever wondered how the tax code shapes who builds wealth in America, this conversation offers a clear and accessible look at what a fairer tax system could look like.
How to Tax the Rich and Studio Fundraiser

This week on the Sunlight Tax podcast, I share why tax fairness matters and how current tax policies disproportionately benefit the wealthiest Americans while placing a greater burden on working people and small business owners. I break down the growing gap between wealth and taxation, explain how these policies affect everyday life, and discuss why a more equitable tax system is essential for a stronger economy and society.
I also share the story behind my latest art project – a fundraiser to rebuild my Helene-destroyed studio that doubles as what I do best: Helping you understand & spread the word about a key issue that’s complex, fact-based, and offering real solutions. With a touch of handmade vibes. And spread the word (before the midterms), and buy a hand-printed tote that helps me rebuild.
A Solution for Fairer Taxes
LISTEN AND SUBSCRIBE HERE
This week, I’m chatting about a topic that’s important to me: how we can create more fairness and equity in our tax system. I’m sharing an op ed written by William Gale, an economist from the Brookings Tax Policy Center that talks more about creating more fairness in tax policy, stopping tax cheats and how we can get there.
Join me in this episode as we head toward the election season to learn about why equity in our tax policy is so important.
