Daniel N. Shaviro (NYU) has published Remarks on David Bradford, 58 National Tax Journal 371-72 (Sept. 2005). Here is the abstract:
In tax reform circles, David Bradford is best known as a leading, or really the leading, consumption tax advocate. But he was an unusual sort of advocate. In law, we think of an advocate as someone who’s paid to take a position. Thus, if you’re arguing in front of the Supreme Court, it somehow turns out that all issues and precedents favor your client.
