Hardback. Etat : New. Named by The New Yorker as one of the Best Books of 2025 and featured on the Armchair Expert podcast with Dax Shepherd.A revelatory book that lifts the curtain on America's most consequential public deception: how the rich get richer using tools the government gave them.Amid conflicting narratives about the drivers of wealth and inequality in the United States, one constant hovers in the background: the US tax code. No political force has been more consequential-or more utterly opaque-than the 7,000-page document that details who pays what in American society and government. Most of us have a sense that it's an unfair system. But does anyone know exactly how it's unfair?Legal scholar Ray D. Madoff knows. In The Second Estate, she offers an unprecedented look behind the scenes of America's byzantine system of taxation, laying bare not only its capacity to consolidate wealth but also the mechanisms by which it has created two fundamentally separate American societies: the working Americans who pay and the ultra-rich who benefit.This is not a story of offshore accounts or secret tax havens. In The Second Estate, Madoff shows that the US system itself has, over time, been stripped and reconstituted such that it now offers a series of secret paths, hidden in plain sight, for wealthy people in the know to avoid taxation altogether. Through the strategic avoidance of traditional income, leveraging of investments and debt, and exploitation of rules designed to promote charitable giving, America's wealthy do more than just pay less than their share; they remove themselves from the tax system entirely. Wealth becomes its own sovereign state, and the living is surprisingly-and maddeningly-cheap.…

near fine dust-jacket, fresh attractive black hardcover, appears unused. MADOFF, RAY D. Immortality and the law: the rising power of the American dead. New Haven: Yale University Press, 2010, 1st printing number line ending in 1, x, 191pp., . "This book takes a look at how the law responds to that distinctly American dream of immortality. While American law provides virtually no protections for the interests we hold most dear--our bodies and our reputations--when it comes to property interests, the American dead have greater control than anywhere else in the world. Moreover, these rights are growing daily. From grave robbery to Elvis impersonators, Ray D. Madoff shows how the law of the dead has a direct impact on how we live." "Madoff examines how the rising power of the American dead enables the deceased to exert control over their wealth forever through grandiose schemes like "dynasty trusts" and perpetual private charitable foundations and to control their creative works and identities well into the unforeseeable future. Madoff explores how the law of the dead can, in essence, extend the reach of life by granting virtual immortality to individuals. All of this comes, Madoff contends, at real costs imposed on the living." - CONTENTS: Controlling the body -- Controlling property (part 1) : transfers to people -- Controlling property (part 2) : transfers for charitable or other purposes -- Controlling reputation.
