Abstract:This article studies a dynamic version of Meltzer and Richard's median-voter model where agents differ in wealth and taxes are proportional to income and are redistributed as equal lump-sum transfers. It suggest that voting occurs every period and each consumer votes for the tax that maximizes his welfare. This article characterizes time-consistent Markov-perfect equilibria twofold and its method for solving the steady state relies on a polynomial expansion around the steady state.
