My latest Economics Explained column in the Australian Financial Review points out that company taxes fall mainly on households. That they hit young, low-skilled, and female workers the hardest. And that they made the income tax schedule 40% less progressive.

Nice framework. And the normative complement would be that it is OK for majorities in power to delegate to technocratic bodies when they fear their future selves (the usual time inconsistency argument), but not OK when they want to lock in policy because the opposition might rule in the future.
