摘要
We study the optimal taxation of labor and capital in a dynamic economy subject to government expenditure shocks. Unlike representative-agent Ramsey models, workers are heterogenous in terms of their access to the financial market: “Ricardian” agents can borrow and save while the “hand-to-mouth” agents are constrained and can only consume their after-tax labor income in the current period. We find that the optimal labor-tax is not constant and the capital tax is not zero as prescribed by Ramsey optimal tax theory and the critical condition that alters this result is the non-discriminative tax rate set by the government.
