This study seeks to estimate and compare tax burdens for hypothetical families assumed to reside in each of the eleven contiguous Western states--Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Utah, Washington, and Wyoming. The estimates are made for a wide range of incomes--from $3,500 to $50,000--in each state. The taxes are allocated employing various shifting assumptions based on economic and tax incidence analysis. The tax exporting issue is acknowledged, and the estimates of burden adjusted to account for this phenomena. As a result, the rankings of states by level of tax burden shown in this study differ from those yielded by the more usual taxes per capita and taxes per $1,000 of personal income measures. The procedure used in this study allows for interstate comparisons of tax burden at each of the ten income levels considered. As a by-product, it gives an estimate of the distribution of the tax burden within each of the eleven states.

This innovative, global feminist analysis of work and politics examines the diverse problems and related protests of women and men who labor to make ends meet in a rapidly-changing world. Using vivid examples from around the world, it reveals how "globalization" is reshaping social institutions and lives. Fast Forward explores how businesses and states reshaped and redistributed work around the world during the last 30 years of "globalization," often with adverse consequences. Within this fast-moving context, laboring people today engage in work outside of formal employment, try to obtain survival resources, mount a diverse array of often women-centered protests against firms and states, and try--on their own terms--to reinvent work and democratic political practices. Portraying the human face of global change, Fast Forward shows how overlapping social movements wrestle with economic and political marginalization, and initiate highly diverse, but related attempts to change the way the world works.
