Sounds about right.
Cutting public employees does not reduce tax revenue.
Tell me if 100% of youR pay is made with money collected from others via taxes and I lay you off how did tax revenue decrease?
If a "society" consisted of 100 people making 1000 a month and each of them paid 100 a month in taxes the total monthly tax revenue would be 10,000.
Now if you were hired as the only public employee for that "society" and were paid 1000 a month the total tax revenue decreases to 9000 a month.
Now if you pay the same 100 a month in taxes as the other 100 members of the "society" then the total monthly tax revenue is 9100.
If we fire you the total tax revenue increases to its original 10,000 a month.
So tell me how does firing public employees decrease tax revenue?
Lol, I was drooling over that post, but you beat me to the punch!
Sometimes math escapes even those who pride themselves on being politically aligned with the academics.
