abstract: 'We analyse the question of optimal taxation in a dual economy, when the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
policy-maker is concerned about the distribution of labour income.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Income inequality is caused by the presence of sunk capital investments,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
which creates a ``good jobs{''''} sector due to the capture of quasi-rents
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
by trade unions. With strong unions and high planner preference for
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
income equality, the optimal policy is a combination of investment
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
subsidies and progressive income taxation. If unions are weaker, the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
policy-maker may instead choose to tax investment.'
