Tax cuts ALWAYS increase tax revenue" -- why do Cons still believe this fairy tale?

The bush tax cuts directly lowered revenue. If you take in 20% of income, then lower it to 15% - the amount of money GOT SMALLER. Conservative brains don't do math.

Economy tanked and tax revenue went down, government spent $5 trillion in stimulus to get economy started. The spending did nothing but get us further into the hole. The best stimulus right now would be to get the economy moving so more people are hired and tax revenue increases.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
