Why do higher income tax rates lead to more economic growth?

If the tax rates were high during a period of strong economic growth, it was a coincidence. In all other cases the only factor affecting economic growth is marginal tax rates. Either low taxes are causing our prosperity, or we could be more prosperous if we lowered taxes.

Historical data can't contradict what conservatives "know" to be true.

No one paid that 90% rate. Look it up. We devastated all of Europe and Japan.

Our manufacturing competition. Even Michael Moore mentioned it in his movie only to ignore it later when discussing those 90% rates. Why do Liberals cherry pick?

Why do people who make a living off the government push for more confiscation? Gee, I wonder. Are you aware that the Middle class in Canada pays a much larger percentage in taxes than our middle class?

Why, then, do the Liberals in this country point to their health care and then demand lower taxes for themselves? It's not hard to understand. See the answer above...He cherry picked the capital gains rate.

Clinton lowered that rate to 20%, but that doesn't seem to fit his discussion.

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.
