The paper aims to explain what the flat tax is and what it is for, analyzing its main economic and social aspects and evaluating its advantages and disadvantages; in particular by examining the different types implemented by the Italian government in 2023, such as the flat tax for lump sums and the incremental one. The thesis is divided into four chapters: in the first, the state budget will be analysed; the various types; the classification of public revenues and expenditures; the principles that characterize it, to have a clearer view of how it is made up and how it works. In the second chapter Irpef, the personal income tax, will be analyzed to better understand its importance within the tax system; who is subject to taxation account; on which incomes it is applied; how it is calculated. The third explains what the flat tax is; the point of view of its inventor Milton Friedman; the perspective of his great supporter, Arthur Laffer. Finally, the last chapter analyzes the two types of flat tax currently in force in Italy, paying particular attention to the advantages of their application; the inequalities they could generate with respect to employees; in which situations it is appropriate to choose them or to prefer the ordinary personal income tax regime.
L'elaborato ha l'obiettivo di spiegare cos’è, e a cosa serve la flat tax, analizzando i suoi principali aspetti economici e sociali e valutando i suoi vantaggi e svantaggi; in particolare esaminando le diverse tipologie implementate dal governo italiano nel 2023, come la flat tax per i forfettari e quella incrementale. La tesi è articolata in quattro capitoli: nel primo, verrà analizzato il bilancio dello Stato; le varie tipologie; la classificazione delle entrate e delle spese pubbliche; i principi che lo caratterizzano, per avere una visione più chiara di come è costituito e il suo funzionamento. Nel secondo capitolo verrà analizzata Irpef, l’imposta sul reddito delle persone fisiche, per comprendere al meglio la sua importanza all’interno del sistema tributario; chi è soggetto a tale tassazione; su quali redditi viene applicata; come viene calcolata. Nel terzo viene spiegato cos’è la flat tax; il punto di vista del suo inventore Milton Friedman; la prospettiva di un suo grande sostenitore, Arthur Laffer. Infine, nell’ultimo capitolo vengono analizzate le due tipologie di tassa piatta attualmente in vigore in Italia, ponendo particolare attenzione ai vantaggi della loro applicazione; alle disuguaglianze che potrebbero generare rispetto ai lavoratori dipendenti; in quali situazioni è opportuno sceglierle o preferire il regime Irpef ordinario.

Abstract
The paper aims to explain what the flat tax is and what it is for, analyzing its main economic and social aspects and evaluating its advantages and disadvantages; in particular by examining the different types implemented by the Italian government in 2023, such as the flat tax for lump sums and the incremental one. The thesis is divided into four chapters: in the first, the state budget will be analysed; the various types; the classification of public revenues and expenditures; the principles that characterize it, to have a clearer view of how it is made up and how it works. In the second chapter Irpef, the personal income tax, will be analyzed to better understand its importance within the tax system; who is subject to taxation account; on which incomes it is applied; how it is calculated. The third explains what the flat tax is; the point of view of its inventor Milton Friedman; the perspective of his great supporter, Arthur Laffer. Finally, the last chapter analyzes the two types of flat tax currently in force in Italy, paying particular attention to the advantages of their application; the inequalities they could generate with respect to employees; in which situations it is appropriate to choose them or to prefer the ordinary personal income tax regime.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
