2008 Tax Policy Conference - "Our Nation's Founding Principles and Our Tax Code - Consistent or In Conflict?"

The architects of our nation took great care to constitute a limited government founded on personal responsibility and individual liberty.  Do our internal revenue laws promote or undermine these founding principles?  Are they an appropriate vehicle for implementing sweeping social policy?  These and other questions will be the focus of our conference.
