Arduin, Laffer & Moore Econometrics’ (ALME) Tax Studies provide unparalleled insights into the crucial issue of taxation. Tax policies at the federal and state levels have important impacts on economic growth. People do not work to pay taxes. People work to earn an after-tax income. Changes to federal and state tax policies will either enhance or diminish the pro-growth incentives in the economy. Strengthening pro-growth incentives in the national (or state) economy encourages strong economic growth. Conversely, weakening pro-growth incentives, discourages economic growth.

ALME has the expertise to evaluate the economic impacts from current and proposed tax policies and provide recommended reforms. Our analyses are used by government offices, policy groups, and corporations.
