Taxes Too High? Political Parties Too Divided?

 

Do we know what we really pay in taxes? Are our political parties united on the issues, the candidates, or the fundamental policies that have traditionally formed them? Listen in for a few answers and a few more questions from State of the State podcasters Matt Grossmann, IPPSR's Director, Charles Ballard, director of IPPSR's State of the State Survey and IPPSR Associate Director Arnold Weinfeld. They talk together and share the air with guests monthly.

Now an IPPSR staple feature, the production is featured on radio stations on the air and over the internet, on SoundCloud at http://soundcloud.com/stateofthestatepodcast, over ITunes, on Facebook, Twitter and on the IPPSR website at ippsr.msu.edu.
