X-tax book

Review copy received: Progressive Consumption Taxation: The X-Tax Revisited, by Robert Carroll and Alan D. Viard. The X-tax is an idea that's gotten only marginal attention in this election cycle (though Romney advisor Glenn Hubbard has spoken favorably about it). It merits attention, not least as a way to get rid of the income tax. Some more info here.
