The leaked tapes that show how the rich avoid taxes

Tax avoidance -- that is, legally reducing your tax bill -- is as American as apple pie. But the line between tax avoidance and tax evasion is often a grey one. On today’s show, a collaboration with Tax Notes, we listen in on the secret tapes that show how the wealthiest Americans avoid taxes. We trace the lifecycle of a tax loophole: how it was born (in Malta), how it grew, how the Feds cracked down, and how the industry came to its rescue -- with the help of one high-ranking Trump administration official.

The giant factory town that might be a giant mistake

How does a poor country become a rich country? There's a simple blueprint — or at least, that's what many economists used to believe. But over the years, a lot of rapidly developing economies have stalled out. These countries aren't poor anymore, but they're not rich either. They're stuck in the middle. The World Bank calls this problem the "middle income trap."And if there's a poster child for the middle income trap, many would point to Brazil. For a time, Brazil had one of the fastest growing economies in the world. On today's show, we head to Brazil to understand why the old blueprint for economic development might not work so well anymore.The story starts in the Amazon rainforest. With an audacious plan to industrialize the country as fast as possible.Support:Planet Money+Read: Our book: Planet Money: A Guide to the Economic Forces That Shape Your Life Our weekly longform Planet Money newsletterOur weekly Indicator round-up newsletterFollow: InstagramTikTokYouTubeFacebookThis episode of Planet Money was hosted by Jeff Guo.

Vacation and why Americans take so little

Do you work more for more money? Or work less for more time? For some, this is the ultimate economic choice. Every single worker in the European Union is guaranteed four weeks of paid vacation. No matter how long they’ve been at a company. No matter how low paying the job is. Vacation is a right. In fact, all but one of the richest countries in the world guarantees paid vacation, except: the U.S. According to a 2019 study, people in Japan get 10 paid vacation days and 15 paid holidays; in Australia it’s 20 paid vacation days and 8 paid holidays; and in Spain it’s 25 paid vacation days and 14 paid holidays. And it’s not just a rich country thing: Mexico, Afghanistan, Thailand, Tanzania - they all guarantee paid vacation from work, at least in the formal job sector. In the U.S: Zero paid vacation days and zero paid holidays. So, why is the United States the outlier? We go to several labor economists and historians, to find out what makes Americans different from Europeans. It’s a winding journey, so maybe put in a request for some paid time off and take a listen!Note: This episode originally ran in 2023.Some articles we mention in this episode:“No Vacation Nation”“Study: A Record 768 Million U.S. Vacation Days Went Unused in ‘18, Opportunity Cost in the Billions”“Why the US is one of only a few countries with no paid time off”This episode was hosted by Sarah Gonzalez, produced by Sam Yellowhorse Kesler, edited by Jess Jiang, engineered by Maggie Luthar, and fact-checked by Sierra Juarez.

Jerome Powell and the Future of Fed Independence

If you have a credit card, hope to buy a house, or just want stable grocery prices – let’s talk about the future of Fed independence!It’s impossibly important for the Federal Reserve to steer monetary policy without political interference – an ideal pushed to its brink during Jerome Powell’s time as Fed Chair.Powell’s Fed faced a once-in-a-century pandemic, oversaw the economy as inflation spiked to about 9 percent … went back down to nearly 2 percent … and has started to go back up as the U.S. has gone to war and continued to try and implement the most comprehensive tariffs since the early 1900s.But perhaps Powell will be best remembered as a target – of angry tweets, speeches, and ultimately a criminal investigation, by the very president who nominated him in the first place.On Powell’s last day as chair, we ask where his story fits into the sweep of history. We’ll hear from someone who was on the Fed Board when Powell was appointed … and when President Trump started to pressure Powell. Plus, we learn what to watch for to see if Fed Independence is crumbling – or holding – as a new Fed Chair nominated by President Trump takes office.Recommend Listening: - Happy Fed Independence Day - The case for Fed independence in the Nixon tapes - A primer on the Federal Reserve's independence - Trump's unprecedented attack on the Fed - Should presidents have more of a say in interest rates? - Lisa Cook and the fight for the Fed - What happens to central banks under pressure?Book info. / Subscribe to Planet Money+Listen free: Apple Podcasts, Spotify, the NPR app or anywhere you get podcasts.Facebook / Instagram / TikTok / Our weekly Newsletter.This episode was hosted by Kenny Malone and Erika Beras.

The secret meeting that launched OPEC

Recently, a listener wrote in with a question about OPEC and oil prices. She was prepping for a camping trip… thinking about how much it costs to fill up her diesel-guzzling camper van at the pump. “It would be so awesome if you guys could do an episode explaining OPEC to us,” she emailed us. She wanted to know: why does OPEC exist? Why does it limit the supply of oil? And now that the United Arab Emirates has dropped out, what will happen to gas prices? We love when our listeners write in (and send us voice notes!). The simplest questions can reveal how the complicated web of the economy works.On our latest: we answer our listener’s questions… and the questions behind those questions!

How Toxic Is the Air You Breathe?

The Trump administration is rolling back restrictions on air pollution in the U.S., and some experts say this could affect the health of millions of people.

Revolutions

4. Italiani brava gente: il colonialismo fascista

Uno degli obiettivi di Mussolini era riprendere il progetto coloniale italiano, per fare dell'Italia un grande Impero. Il tentativo di conquistare l'Etiopia, avviato a fine Ottocento, era fallito miseramente ad Adua nel 1896, quando l’esercito italiano aveva subito una clamorosa sconfitta nei pressi della città etiope. Con la nuova aggressione all’Etiopia, Mussolini vuole lavare l’onta storica di Adua ed espandere la presenza coloniale dell’Italia in Africa. Il tentativo di conquistare l'Etiopia si rilevò ben più difficile del previsto e soprattutto portò a una serie di massacri di civili e militari etiopi, esecuzioni sommarie, uso di armi chimiche vietate dal diritto internazionale. L'Africa veniva vista come una terra di risorse da depredare, così come i suoi abitanti. Il colonialismo italiano è stata una delle pagine più buie della nostra storia, ma ancora oggi se ne parla troppo poco e a noi è arrivato il mito "degli italiani brava gente", che però non ha riscontro nella realtà dei fatti.

Il 4 novembre 1925, la polizia fascista evita un tentativo di attentato alla vita di Mussolini. Negli anni successivi, il dittatore subirà almeno altri quattro attentati, riuscendo sempre a salvarsi. I tentativi di uccidere Mussolini vengono usati dal regime per due fini: da una parte viene glorificata la figura del Duce come "invincibile", dall'altra si procede alla repressione delle libertà di stampa e di opposizione. In questi anni, viene anche portata avanti una grande opera di fascistizzazione dell'Italia, che passa dal linguaggio, dall'architettura, dall'economia, dallo sport. Sono anni in cui la propaganda diventa fondamentale e contribuisce a creare tutta una serie di falsi miti sul fascismo, molti dei quali resistono ancora oggi.

1. Nessuno vide nascere il fascismo: dai Fasci di combattimento alle elezioni del 1921

Il 23 marzo 1919, in una sala del primo piano di Palazzo Castani in piazza San Sepolcro, a Milano, si ritrovano poco più di 200 persone. Benito Mussolini, direttore del quotidiano Il popolo d'Italia, ha fondato un nuovo movimento: i Fasci di combattimento, che radunano soprattutto veterani della Prima guerra mondiale, rivoluzionari, anarchici di varia estrazione. Nessuno fa caso a quel raduno, nessuno - neanche lo stesso Mussolini - avrebbe mai immaginato che da lì sarebbe nato il regime che per vent'anni avrebbe preso il comando dell'Italia. Ma chi era Benito Mussolini? Come nacque il fascismo e come iniziò a diffondersi? Qual era il rapporto tra Mussolini e D'Annunzio? Ne parliamo nella prima puntata della terza stagione di Rewind. Errata corrige: al minuto 28:30, si parla di Enrico De Nicola, non di Enrico De Camera

2. Il fascismo prende il potere: dalla Marcia su Roma, all'omicidio Matteotti

"Preparate l'elogio funebre per me". Giacomo Matteotti, deputato socialista e uno dei principali oppositori di Mussolini, pronuncia queste parole a un suo collega deputato dopo aver denunciato in Parlamento le violenze fasciste durante le elezioni. È il 30 maggio 1924. Pochi giorni dopo, il 10 giugno, Matteotti viene rapito e ucciso da un commando fascista. In questa seconda puntata di Rewind sulla storia del fascismo, raccontiamo come Benito Mussolini sia riuscito a prendere il potere, attraverso le violenze delle squadracce fasciste, la marcia su Roma e, infine, tramite l'omicidio di Giacomo Matteotti. L'uccisione di Matteotti, che in un primo momento fece vacillare il governo Mussolini (tanto che si pensò che il fascismo stesse per cadere), in realtà fu utilizzata dal Duce per rafforzare il suo potere e far cadere le istituzioni liberali: in un discorso pronunciato alla Camera dei deputati il 3 gennaio del 1925, Mussolini si assunse la responsabilità politica e morale dell'omicidio Matteotti, dando vita così alla dittatura fascista.

8. L’11 settembre e la guerra all’America di Bin Laden

La storia dell’attentato alle Torri Gemelle e della guerra all’America di Al-Qaida comincia molto prima dell’11 settembre 2001. L’organizzazione terroristica viene fondata nel 1988, dopo che il giovane Osama Bin Laden, rampollo saudita di buona famiglia, si convince che gli Stati Uniti siano i principali responsabili di tutti i mali che affliggono il mondo islamico. Sono moltissimi gli attentati organizzati in giro per il mondo in quegli anni, tutti con uno stesso obiettivo: i cittadini americani. La rete diventa sempre più ampia e grazie all’incontro con un uomo, nel 1996 in Afghanistan, viene costruito l’attentato più famoso della storia.
