# We Need to Tax Billionaires: "The most important economist in the world today"

The We Need to Tax Billionaires book series explores the critical economic intersection of wealth inequality and global taxation policy. Authored by renowned economist Gabriel Zucman, this business and economics series examines the systemic disparities between ordinary taxpayers and the ultra-wealthy. The central premise focuses on how billionaires often pay near zero income tax by deriving wealth through corporate structures rather than traditional salaries.

This novel series of economic analysis introduces the 2% Zucman tax, a proposed minimum tax designed to target the world's wealthiest individuals. By analyzing current fiscal loopholes, the books provide a framework for modern political and economic reform. Readers gain insight into the vanguard of the global debate regarding wealth redistribution and the necessity of updated tax codes. The series serves as a comprehensive guide to understanding the mechanics of modern inequality and potential legislative solutions.
